Bid Description:
The University of Arkansas Fayetteville, in accordance with the policies of the Board of Trustees, is soliciting responses from interested firms to provide general contractor construction management services for the Combined Heating and Power System (CHP) at the Central Heating Plant.This project will upgrade the Heating Plant production infrastructure that provides steam and hot water to campus. The new combined heating and power system (CHP) will retire outdated, inefficient equipment that has reached the end of its useful life. The CHP will provide capacity for future growth in heating load by meeting increased utility production requirements driven by increasing enrollment and expanding academic programs. In addition, the opportunity exists to use electrical power from the CHP to provide emergency backup power to critical research buildings on campus in the event of a major power outage. The CHP replaces existing boilers #7 (1964) and #8 (1973). The system consists of a nominal 5.2 MW gas turbine generator, a non-fired heat recovery boiler (28,000 lb/hr), and an additional 40,000 lb/hr of modular high efficiency boiler capacity. The advantage of a CHP system is that it is it offers much higher cycle efficiencies (73%) than conventional power and heat production methods (40%). The project will be fully commissioned. The total project cost is currently estimated at $16.1 million. The CHP offers the opportunity to advance the university’s environmental goals while, simultaneously, having a positive internal rate of return (9.4%) and net present value ($6.4M) over the life of the equipment.
