Technical requirements: The objective of this study is the technical and economic feasibility of a carbon capture facility for the waste CHP plant owned and operated by Fjernvarme Fyn Affald A/S (FFA). FFA receives approximately 280.000 t/year of mixed waste and consequently the captured CO2 will be a mix of fossil and biogenic CO2. The major part of the biogenic CO2 is assumed to be utilized by Fortum for methanol production to the extent that this is feasible (to be investigated by Fortum in separate study) whereas not utlised CO2 shall be stored permanently.
If the number of compliant requests received exceeds the number stated above, The Client will conduct a selection among these applicants. Based on the lists of reference, The Client will select the applicants that to substantial extent match the contract tendered. With regards to applicants relying on the technical and professional capabilities of other entities, the selection will be based on all references submitted in correlation to the request, cf. section 3.1.
The specific content of each reference, relevance and comparability with the contract tendered will be given the greatest importance, while the number of references is a secondary consideration in the selection.
Economic operators, including any sub-suppliers of applicants will be excluded from participation, if the economic operator is covered by the mandatory grounds for exclusion under §§ 135-136 of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
In addition, an economic operator will be excluded from participation, if such economic operator is covered by the voluntary grounds for exclusion which will be § 137, stk.1, 2, 3 and 5 and § 11 in Notice no. 1078 of 29/06/2022, § 134 a regarding tax jurisdictions and Council regulation 2022/576 of 8th April 2022 regarding Russia.

For associations (e.g. a consortium), the solvency ratio of the association are calculated as the value of the association’s combined equity relative to the combined assets of the association, expressed in percentage terms.
If the applicant relies on the economic capability of other associations, the Client will calculate the applicant’s solvency ratio as the value of the equity of the applicant and such other associations combined relative to their combined assets, expressed in percentages.
The minimum requirements to participate for the technical and professional capabilities of tenderers are:
For the evaluation of technical and professional capabilities, the applicant must state in the ESPD the applicant’s significant deliverables in/under similar projects/contracts that are performed within the past three years. The applicant can enclose reference sheets or similar annexes that describe and illustrate such references, but reference must be made to the ESPD.
The applicant must be able to demonstrate at least 2 references for feasibility studies within each of the following categories:
-	Post combustion carbon capture plants. References larger than 250.000 t CO2/year will be evaluated positively.

Eligibility requirements: Economic operators, including any sub-suppliers of applicants will be excluded from participation, if the economic operator is covered by the mandatory grounds for exclusion under §§ 135-136 of the Danish Public Procurement Act.
