QUESTIONS

Q: We have a staff member that is a PV Technical Sales Professional. Does this title meet the qualifications for a NABCEP certified staff member?

A: We’re specifically looking for staff to include at least one NABCEP Certified PV Installation Professional. PV Technical Sales Professional certification is not the qualification we’re looking for.

Q: Please clarify where the NABCEP Installer Certification requirement can be satisfied.

A: If a prime contractor is NABCEP certified and their subs are not, that satisfies the RFP. If the prime contractor is NOT certified but the sub is, that satisfies the RFP.

Q: To what extent will MREA or Madison County officials engage with involved municipalities and utilities (investor or co-op/muni) to facilitate creating streamlined permitting and interconnection approval processing?

A: MREA will assist to the extent possible, but cannot guarantee any entity’s compliance with recommendations.

3. When and in what form must the bond be delivered by the winning vendor(s)?

A: A check made out to MREA no later than 30 days from installer selection announcement.
