The objective of this RFP is to engage a qualified proponent to conduct a comprehensive study of EPCOR's current distribution loading policies. As load growth continues within the City of Edmonton and as distribution and transmission assets age, EPCOR needs to determine the most effective distribution loading strategy to guide prudent investment and system expansion while maintaining customer reliability. The study will assess whether existing loading policies are optimal given the current asset conditions and future growth projections, or whether alternative loading policies could yield greater system benefits.
The successful proponent will be expected to analyze EPCOR's distribution and transmission system data, evaluate loading policy options, and provide recommendations. The study is designated as a services procurement with a bid type of RFP. The contract duration is four months. Key milestones include a question deadline of July 10, 2026 at 2:00 PM MDT and a bid closing date of July 17, 2026 at 2:00 PM MDT. Proposals must be submitted online via the EPCOR bids and tenders portal; no public opening is scheduled. The RFP includes several appendices: Appendix 1 (Information) provides a detailed description of the work, Appendix 2a contains the pricing table, and a Working Copy document addresses Indigenous participation requirements. Trade agreements and conditions for participation are referenced in the project documents.
The work is to be performed for EPCOR's service area in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The RFP falls under categories including Consulting Services, Professional Services, and Other Professional, Strategic, Administrative or Management Services. Proponents must have experience in electric distribution system planning, load analysis, and asset management. Evaluation criteria and negotiation type are specified in the bid documents. This RFP represents an opportunity for firms specializing in utility planning and engineering to contribute to the strategic development of Edmonton's electrical distribution system.
