France – Operation of electrical installations – AVIS021071

This is a negotiated procedure (with call for competition) for the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of a battery storage project in Corsica (South Corsica) with a capacity of 20 MWh (8 MW power). The tender is by EDF Power Solutions (a renewable energy subsidiary) and is contingent on EDF winning a related CRE (French energy regulator) tender. The contract includes supply and installation of AC and DC equipment (DC supply is an option that must be included in the offer but may be removed by the buyer) and a 15-year O&M period. Submission is electronic via the EDF portal, in French, with a guarantee requirement. No estimated value, no clear submission deadline, and no detailed procurement documents were analyzed. The procedure is two-stage with selection based on a questionnaire covering RSE, administrative, economic, financial, and technical criteria.
