New clarification added: Question No.5: I am currently in the process of submitting my Expression of Interest (EOI) and have noticed that, apart from Form A and B, I am unable to find an option to upload the requested certificates. I can only see the questionnaire section available for completion. (Can I put all the requested documents in a drive and provide that link for each questionnaire?)Could you kindly clarify how and where I should upload the remaining documents, including the requested certificates?Answer No.5: In essence through this EOI, UNOPS wants to assess the availability of relevant suppliers in the national/regional market. The confirmation obtained through the responses of questionnaire provided in the EOI would suffice at the moment. Because later at the actual tendering stage, UNOPS would like to ascertain the certificates and other requisite information, as deemed necessary. Having stated this, please feel free to upload any document(s) you may like to add by giving it an appropriate title under the space provided for uploading Form-A and Form-B. Thanks

This would demonstrate the required experience in managing projects of comparable scope and technical demands. Question No.3: For ‘Experience in procurement and installation of utility scale grid energy storage systems’ please accept references that include PV + BESS with a lower capacity.Answer No.3: Yes, references that include PV (Photovoltaic) + BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) with lower capacity upto 2 MWhr can be accepted as relevant experience for procurement and installation of utility-scale grid energy storage systems.
