Regional Renewable Energy Procurement
The San Francisco Bay Area Regional Renewable Energy Procurement Project was the nation’s largest multi-agency collaborative solar procurement to date at the time of inception. Optony was selected by Alameda County to guide the group of 19 Bay Area district authorities through the solicitation of 31 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy. Optony provided technical energy advisory support for over 200 municipal sites, created and distributed RFP documents, and played a central role in project developer interviews and proposal evaluation. Keeping the best interests of the public agencies in mind after vendor selection, Optony led contract negotiation and communication with vendors, enforced budget timelines, and managed design and engineering throughout project commissioning. Participants are expected to save $108M and projects are expected to generate $70M+ in local economic activity and 300+ jobs.
