Investor Presentaiton
Procurement
Goal: Build an operational CHP system according to specifications,
on schedule and within budget.
• Timeframe: 3 to 30 months, depending on system size and
complexity
Typical Costs: $1,000 - $4,000/ kilowatt (kW) installed
• Candidate site level of effort required: Varies depending on
procurement approach, similar to any construction project
• Questions to answer: Is the system fully commissioned and running
as designed? Will operations and maintenance be performed by site
staff or will it be outsourced? If in-house, have employees been
trained to perform these functions? If outsourced, have service
contracts been procured for equipment or system maintenance,
equipment overhaul or replacement, system availability, or
monitoring and control?
