KOTA KINABALU, 20 June - The Energy Commission of Sabah (ECoS) reminds potential bidders for the upcoming Large-Scale Solar (LSS) Photovoltaic (PV) Power Plant project (LSS-SABAH2024) that the deadline for purchasing the RFP (Request for Proposal) document will end at 5.00pm on 26 June 2024.
All online transactions must include a proof of purchase for the RFP document before midnight on 26 June.
Datuk Ir. Abdul Nasser Abdul Wahid, ECoS CEO said, “As mentioned in the notice to bid, subsequent to the deadline for purchase of the RFP document, there will also be an online briefing session to be held on 1 st July 2024 for all purchasers of RFP documents in order to facilitate the bid submission before the deadline on 23rd September 2024,” he said.
He added a reminder to potential bidders that they are also required to appoint Electrical Contractors with Class PV (Grid-Connected) registered with ECoS.
“Currently there are only 15 registered Electrical Contractors with Class PV (Grid-Connected) with 9 of them are local Sabah companies, however not all have the capability to do large scale solar projects.”
He encouraged all qualified and competent Electrical Contractors with Class PV (Grid-Connected) to register with ECoS as more contractors are needed to handle the anticipated large number of LSS projects under the LSS-SABAH2024.
He also welcomed the importance of small scale contractors who are also needed to provide their services to support ongoing SELCO-PV Sabah programs in order to support and provide more choices to would-be developers.
“As such, I strongly encourage interested contractors to register early with ECoS, and I can assure you that we will facilitate timely approval, subject to fulfilling the requirements”, he said.
Interested parties can sight the bidding document at ECoS headquarters located at Level 10, Plaza Shell, Kota Kinabalu during office hours. General information of the bid can also be obtained at www.ecos.gov.my/LSS-SABAH2024 or email any queries to LSS-SABAH2024@ecos.gov.my.
