    The Green Heat Test Drive - call for proposals has been extended!/Banc d'essai énergie verte - appel de propositions prolongée!

    The Green Heat: Low Carbon Energy Generation for Heating Existing Buildings Test Drive call for proposals has been extended! We are pleased to announce that the deadline to apply to the Green Heat Test Drive Call for Proposals (CFP) has been extended by three weeks. The deadline for application is now Tuesday, September 28, 2021. See the full Call for Proposals that was issued July 27, 2021, and explore how you can support environmental progress and contribute to this key energy initiative. In extending the deadline, the Department of National Defence (DND) is maximizing its chances of getting the best technology to solve the challenge of finding ways to convert its buildings to low carbon heating without requiring a major building retrofit, and address greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. About the challenge: The Department of National Defence and the Canadian Armed Forces (DND/CAF) are looking to Test Drive creative energy generation solutions to pair up with existing heating systems to help lower our carbon footprint. Specifically, DND/CAF are seeking a large-scale, low carbon energy generation/transfer system for heating existing buildings by integrating with their current hydronic heat distribution systems. A test building has been selected in Kingston, Ontario, for a Design-Build team to design and install an innovative system, in order to assess the effectiveness and the costs of these integrated technologies, with the aim of reducing the energy demand and carbon footprint of DND/CAF's infrastructure portfolio. The potential funding for the Design-Build contract component of the project has been established in the range of $5,500,000. Interested in knowing more about this Test Drive?

Nous sommes heureux d'annoncer que la date limite pour l'appel de propositions pour le Banc d'essai Énergie Verte a été prolongée de trois semaines. L'échéance pour présenter une demande est désormais fixée au mardi 28 septembre 2021. Consultez l'intégralité de l'appel de propositions publié le 27 juillet 2021 et découvrez comment vous pouvez soutenir le progrès environnemental et contribuer à cette initiative énergétique clé. En prolongeant la date limite, le ministère de la Défense nationale (MDN) maximise ses chances d'obtenir la meilleure technologie pour relever le défi de trouver des moyens de convertir ses b'timents au chauffage à faibles émissions de carbone sans nécessiter une rénovation majeure du b'timent, et de lutter à réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES). À propos du défi : Le ministère de la Défense nationale et les Forces armées canadiennes (MDN/FAC) cherchent à tester des solutions créatives de production d'énergie à jumeler avec les systèmes de chauffage existants pour aider à réduire notre empreinte carbone. Plus précisément, le MDN et les FAC recherchent un système de production/transfert d'énergie à grande échelle et à faible émission de carbone pour le chauffage des b'timents existants; ce système serait intégré aux systèmes actuels de distribution du chauffage hydronique. Un b'timent d'essai a été sélectionné à Kingston, en Ontario, afin qu'une équipe de conception-construction conçoive et installe un système novateur. L'objectif est d'évaluer l'efficacité et les coûts de ces technologies intégrées, dans le but de réduire la demande d'énergie et l'empreinte carbone du portefeuille d'infrastructures du MDN et des FAC. Le financement possible pour le volet conception-construction du projet a été établi à environ 5 500 000 $. Vous souhaitez en savoir plus sur ce banc d'essai ?
