Retail Supplier Selected For $1 Billion Federal Government Nuclear Energy Procurement
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by VertexOne, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
Constellation has been awarded more than $1 billion in combined contracts by the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) to supply power to more than 13 government agencies, and to perform energy savings and conservation measures at five GSA-owned facilities in the National Capital Region.
Constellation's retail subsidiaries will provide the services to the GSA.
Under a 10-year, $840 million contract, which Constellation called the largest in GSA history, Constellation will supply the GSA with more than 1 million megawatt hours (MWh/yr) annually, beginning in 2025. A portion of the power will come from investments Constellation will make to increase nuclear plant output (uprates)
"This historic procurement locks in a cost-competitive, reliable supply of nuclear energy over a 10-year period...," said GSA Administrator Robin Carnahan
The energy will be supplied to the Architect of the Capitol, the General Services Administration, the Social Security Administration, the Army Corps of Engineers, the Department of Veterans’ Affairs, the Department of Transportation, the U.S. Mint, the U.S. Railroad Retirement Board, the National Archives and Records Administration, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, the Federal Reserve System, the National Park Service, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, in locations the agencies own or operate in Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Ohio.
Constellation was also awarded a $172 million Energy Savings Performance Contract to perform energy savings and conservation measures at five GSA-owned facilities in the National Capital Region. The work implemented under the contract will include LED lighting, weatherization, window inserts and replacements, and new and upgraded HVAC and building control equipment at the Elijah Barrett Prettyman U.S. Courthouse, the William B. Bryant Annex, the Orville Wright Federal Building, and the Wilbur Wright Federal Building, all located in Washington, DC, and the Harvey W. Wiley Federal Building in College Park, MD.
In addition, the four buildings located in Washington, DC, will be converted from steam power to electricity through the installation of electric boilers and heat pumps.
Project construction is scheduled to begin this month and will continue for approximately 42 months. Constellation will provide preventive maintenance services as well as ongoing training to GSA personnel.
