Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Town of Derry is seeking a proposal to include the following components: 1. The Town of Derry is seeking proposals to either purchase the solar panels outright or consider a lease to own option as offered by the Proposers (PPA). All submissions shall explicitly state a firm annual lease for the duration of the contract (minimum of 25 years) and a buy-out amount starting at the end of Year 5. If escalation clauses are to be included, the proposal shall include percentage increases for each year over the 25-year period. 2. The Proposer shall be responsible for system design and permitting through NHDES and other regulatory agencies such as NHPUC. This would include any Wetlands permit for the crossing of Beaver Brook. Proposer will be responsible for completing the Eversource Interconnection Agreement and any other Eversource requirements to complete the project. These costs shall be included in the Proposer’s price quote (see attached), with any relevant assumptions, based on previous landfill projects that the Proposer has completed. 3. The Proposer shall provide a glare study that takes into consideration surrounding homes, roads and highways. 4. The Proposer shall furnish surety (bond) for 100% value of the project cost, if the project is an outright purchase. 5. The Proposer will not be responsible for building permit fees and property taxes if the proposal includes provisions for the Town to own the panels outright. If the proposal includes a lease provision, the Proposer should assume that it is their responsibility to pay annual tax payments for the duration of private ownership. If there is a future adoption of a Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) as permitted by New Hampshire RSA 72:74, the Town of Derry would seek a renegotiation of terms of the proposed contract.
