Technical requirements: The Invitation for prequalification relates to construction of a CHP (combined heat and power) combined-cycle power plant (CCPP), hereinafter referred to as “CCPP EL-TO Zagreb” on turnkey basis according to FIDIC Conditions of Contract, with an electrical output of 90 to 150 MW (under ISO conditions) and with heat output between 80 to 120 MWt. A Long-Term Service Agreement (LTSA) for the gas turbines is also requested.
This Invitation for Prequalification follows the General Procurement Notice for this project, which was published, on the EBRD website, Project Procurement Notice (http://www.ebrd.com/work-with-us/procurement/p-pn-150617a.html) on 17 June 2015.
Hrvatska Elektroprivreda d.d. (“HEP”), hereinafter referred to as “the Client”, intends using part of the proceeds of a loan from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, hereinafter referred to as “the Bank”, towards the cost of CCPP EL-TO Zagreb.
The Client intends prequalifying firms and consortia to tender for the following contract, hereinafter referred to as “the Contract”, to be funded from part of the proceeds of the loan.
The CCPP EL-TO Zagreb shall consist of two natural gas fired, single fuel, heavy duty/industrial type gas turbines of 32 to 53 MWe capacity (under ISO conditions), each connected to unfired, dual-pressure level HRSGs (Heat Recovery Steam Generator).
The gas turbines shall be of proven design and be equipped with so-called Dry-Low-NOx combustion technology.
The HRSGs shall make use of the district heating return water to effectively utilise the lowgrade heat of the exhaust gases for maximising the overall efficiency of the plant.
The new CCPP EL-TO Zagreb will be located in a free space within the EL-TO Zagreb Cogeneration Plant site in order to replace the existing unit “A”. The site is equipped with required infrastructure, including district heating station, roads, water supply and sewage system, natural gas, telecommunication and electric-power infrastructure, as well as public lighting.
The generated electricity will be transmitted to the electric grid whereas the district heat will be used in the district heating system of the city of Zagreb.
The Contract will cover Engineering, Procurement and Construction on turnkey basis applying FIDIC Conditions of Contract. This will include licensing, permitting, site preparation and installation along with all necessary interconnections to existing facilities within EL-TO and infrastructure, certification, training, commissioning (incl. functional testing, guarantee tests and trial run) until Taking-Over.
The predicted Time for completion of power plant is maximum 28 months. There will be 24 months Defect Notification Period (DNP) followed by LTSA services for the gas turbines for the period of one major inspection cycle.
The design shall comply with all provisions of laws, statutes or other mandatory regulations valid in Croatia, as well as with all relevant EU directives and related harmonised norms and standards. The design of pressure equipment under the European Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) shall be based solely on EN standards.
Prequalification and tendering for contracts to be financed with the proceeds of a loan from the Bank is open to firms and joint ventures of firms from any country.
Prequalification documents may be obtained from the office at the address below upon payment of a non-refundable fee of EUR 200 or equivalent in a local currency.
