ESB is seeking expressions of interest to obtain a place on a qualification system that will be established for companies to design, procure, supply, install and commission gas turbine peaking power plants. The projects will be located in Ireland and the UK, and the qualification system may include projects developed by ESB, ESB Joint Venture companies (existing or yet to be formed), ESB subsidiary companies or companies ESB Group has a minority interest in. Applicants must be able to provide the full scope of services of a gas turbine peaking power plant design and build contractor, including all associated construction, balance of plant and grid connection works. It is envisaged that some of the gas turbine peaking plant projects awarded under this qualification system may incorporate an element of balance of plant activities associated with battery energy storage systems which have been delivered by third parties under an EPC/Design and Build scope procured under a separate process.

ESB plans to develop gas turbine peaking power plants commencing in 2019, through a pipeline of planned projects. The size of individual projects is expected to range between 50 MW and 120 MW, although some projects could be outside of this range. Applicants should note that the detailed scope and contracting strategy for each project will be determined in any subsequent procurement competition (which may include a further pre-qualification process before the tender phase) and may include some or all of the scope items identified above.
