Electric boiler plant 60 MW - Hyvinkää

Hyvinkään Lämpövoima Oy ("The Contracting Entity") is preparing an investment in non-combustible heat production for its district heating network. The Contracting Entity’s plan is to procure an Electrode Boiler plant alongside the Contracting Entity’s existing heat production equipment ("Project"). According to the Contracting Entity's preliminary estimate, the Project includes the following separate procurements: - Electrode boiler plant 60 MW (this procurement) - Building for the Electrode Boiler (will be procured separately, not in the scope of this procurement), - Main transformer (will be procured separately, not in the scope of this procurement), - Building for the main transformer (will be procured separately, not in the scope of this procurement), and - All the necessary infrastructure which is necessary for the overall implementation of the Project (e.g. pipelines etc.). The scope of this procurement is the supply of one (1) complete Electrode Boiler (60 MW) to the Site. This procurement covers the Electrode Boiler with its equipment, internal piping, primary circuits, heat exchanger, electrical and automation systems, controls, fully commissioned and ready for use and operation and subject to official inspections. The scope of the procurement is described in more detail in the Call for tenders and its appendices. The Contracting Entity will eventually award one (1) Tenderer the Contract.

COMPETITIVE TENDERING: The Tenderer's total score (price point + quality points) will be added together. The Contract will be awarded to the Tenderer who has submitted a tender in accordance with the terms and requirements of the Call for Tenders and whose tender is the most economically advantageous. The tender with the best price-quality ratio will be considered as the most economically advantageous tender. The winner of the competitive tendering is selected by comparing fixed price and characteristics of the tendered Electrode Boiler. The maximum points the Tenderer can get from the total comparison is 100 points (price 70 points + quality 30 points (5+10+15)). The Tenderer who gets the highest total comparison points will be awarded the Contract. TENDERS CONTAINING PRODUCTS FROM THIRD COUNTRIES: According to Section 97 of the Act on Procurements and Concession Contracts of Entities Operating in the Water and Energy Supply, Transport and Postal Services Sector (1398/2016) (“Act”), any tender submitted for the award of a supply contract may be rejected where the proportion of the products originating in third countries, as determined in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 October 2013 laying down the Union Customs Code), exceeds 50 % of the total value of the products constituting the tender. The above shall not apply to tenders containing products originating in third countries with which the European Union has concluded, whether multilaterally or bilaterally, an agreement ensuring comparable and effective access for Union undertakings to the markets of those third countries. For this procurement, the Contracting Entity will make use of the possibility of rejecting a tender in accordance with Section 97 of the Act if the tender includes products from the above-mentioned third countries (Electrode Boiler and related machinery, equipment and other similar products) representing more than 50 % of the total value of the products included in the tender. The Tenderer shall indicate in the Appendix "Product Catalog" the most significant products, as well as the country of origin/place of manufacture of these products. The Contracting Entity will evaluate and decide on the proportion of the total value of the tender relating to the products originating in third countries and related to the procurement. If necessary, the Contracting Entity may ask the Tenderer to provide additional information if, upon examination of the tenders, it is not possible to determine unambiguously which of the products covered by the contract originate from third countries. Third countries in this context are those countries outside the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA) which are not party to the World Trade Organization (WTO) Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) and with which the European Union (EU) has not concluded a bilateral agreement to open up public procurement. Examples of such third countries include mainland China and India. SUSPENSION OF THE PROCUREMENT PROCEDURE: The Contracting Entity has the right to suspend the procurement procedure for a real and justified reason (e.g., if an investment decision cannot be made or there are no grounds for it). SITE VISITS: The Contracting Entity reserves all interested Tenderers the opportunity to visit the installation/construction site before submitting a tender. The time of the site visit will be agreed individually with each Tenderer. The site visits will take place starting week 31 (2025). Each Tenderer will be reserved a two (2) hour slot for the site visit. In case of overlapping scheduling of the visits, the visits will be reserved in order of preference for the Tenderers, with priority given to the Tenderer who booked earlier. The Contracting Entity may decide to combine the site visits in such a way that two (2) or more Tenderers interested in the procurement participate in one visit at the same time. The Tenderer may propose the site visit via email by 25.7.2025 at 16.00 (GMT +3) at the latest: hankinnat@hlv.fi The site visit is not a prerequisite for submitting a tender. However, failure to attend the site visit shall in no way diminish the Tenderer's obligations and liabilities under the Contract.

COMPETITIVE TENDERING: Final Comparison Points (Price+ Quality) The Tenderer's total score (price point + quality points) will be added together. The Contract will be awarded to the Tenderer who has submitted a tender in accordance with the terms and requirements of the Call for Tenders and whose tender is the most economically advantageous. The tender with the best price-quality ratio will be considered as the most economically advantageous tender. The winner of the competitive tendering is selected by comparing fixed price and characteristics of the tendered Electrode Boiler (Quality criteria 1-3). The maximum points the Tenderer can get from the total comparison is 100 points (price 70 points + quality 30 points (5+10+15)). The Tenderer who gets the highest total comparison points will be awarded the Contract. Example: Tenderer A has received 70.00 price points and 15 quality points. Tenderer B has received 58.33 price points and 5 quality points. Tenderer C has received 50.00 price points and 10 quality points. Tenderer C will be selected as the Contractor as it has received the highest overall score (70.00 price points + 15 quality points = 85.00 points). In the event of an equal comparison points, the Tenderer committed to higher price points will be chosen. In the event of an equal comparison and price points, then the winner of the competitive tendering is the Tenderer which annual turnover is higher.

The Contracting Entity will not be able to review the tenders on Friday, 15 August 2025, as originally planned. In order to give all tenderers as much time as possible to submit their tenders, the deadline for submission will be extended to Monday, 18 August 2025 at 16:00 (UTC +03:00).
