Traditionally, responses to the request for proposals for the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of a photovoltaic asset for a public entity are screened by using evaluation criteria based on the installed capacity in kWp, quality criteria and other user-defined specifications, while the final decision is based on the total EPC price. This forces contractors to offer the minimum-required installed capacity at the minimum-required quality.enCost-effective procurementPhotovoltaic assetsSolar PVA guideline for cost-efficient procurement of photovoltaic assetsReportChiloane, L.
