ATTACHMENT 1
COMMERCIAL AND QUANTITATIVE EVALUATION DATA
Notes:
- The Respondent should submit a completed Attachment 1 with their Proposal.
Only one Attachment 1 perProposal is permitted.
This is a form field document.Enter data only in the form fields.All other text is in read-only format.
All data is considered “required” for BC Hydro to undertake a complete quantitative evaluation.
Follow the instructions under the column headed “Description of Data”.Use drop down menus () where provided.
The Respondent should provide BC Hydro with the following data to be used in the quantitative evaluation of the Proposal. BC Hydro will also assess the received data and may discuss the validity of this data with the Respondent. The quantitative evaluation may also involve estimating an adjusted levelized price over the potential contract term, with consideration of interconnection costs using high level estimates of network upgrades, losses, and impacts on the System.
