BRANDON FIRE DISTRICT NO.1
58 Franklin Street

Locations:
Rutland
Keywords:
Architect and Engineering (Building), Electrical Equipment and Supplies, Renewable Energy
Bid Description:
The Brandon Fire District No. 1 (hereby “BFD No. 1”) has received funding through the Municipal Energy Resilience Program (MERP), administered by the State of Vermont Department of Buildings and General Services (BGS), to implement energy efficiency and resiliency measures at
the Fire Department Station (61 Franklin Street) and the Fire District Office (59 Franklin Street). The Scope of Work for MERP includes the installation of a solar photovoltaic (PV) panel system in accordance with current engineering design standards and/or installer recommendations,
as funding allows under Act 172 (H.518). The goal is to improve the BFD No. 1’s energy efficiency and resilience, especially following recent HVAC and building-envelope upgrades designed to
reduce dependence on existing fossil-fuel furnace systems. This task is based on an energy audit previously performed for the Fire District in December 2023.
Special Instructions:
This work consists of designing, procuring, and installing a solar PV system for one or both
buildings, with the Fire Department Station receiving priority. At a minimum, the PV system
should have sufficient capacity to meet the average monthly allowance of 3,000 kilowatt-hours for the Fire Department Station. Sealed hardcopy bids are due by 12:00 noon on July 6, 2026, and must be delivered to the Fire District Office at 59 Franklin Street, Brandon, VT 05733. Sealed envelopes must be addressed to the attention of the Prudential Committee. The bid title and bid opening time must be clearly marked on the outside of the envelope. See attached document for proposal requirements and other special conditions.
