(b) the lowest-evaluated Tender for each lot calculated inaccordance with all the requirements of Evaluation Criteria;

(c) the price reduction on account of discount per lot orcombination of lots and the methodology for application ofthe discount as offered by the Tenderer in its Tender; and

56.7 If the tender, which results in the lowest Evaluation Tender Price, isSubstantially below the updated official estimate or seriouslyunbalanced as a result of front loading in the opinion of theProcuring Entity, the Procuring Entity may require the Tenderer toproduce details price analyses for any or all items of the Bill ofQuantities, to demonstrate the internal consistency of those priceswith the construction methods and schedule proposed.

57.3 In the event that there is a tie for the lowest price and none of theTenderers has the record of past performance with the ProcuringEntity as stated under ITT Sub Clause 57.2, then the Tenderer shallbe selected, subject to firm confirmation through the Post-qualification process, after consideration as to whether the Tendererhas demonstrated in its Tender superior past performance with theother Procuring Entities or a more efficient work programme andwork methodology.

58.3 If the Procuring Entity decides to negotiate for reducing the scopeof the requirements under ITT Sub Clause 58.2, it will be requiredto guarantee that the lowest Tenderer remains the lowestTenderer even after the scope of work has been revised and shallfurther be ensured that the objective of the Procurement will notbe seriously affected through this reduction.

58.4 In the event that the Procuring Entity decides because of a highTender price to reduce the scope of the requirements to meet theavailable budget, the Tenderer is not obliged to accept the awardand shall not be penalised in any way for rejecting the proposedaward.

Post-qualification 59.1 The Procuring Entity shall determine to its satisfaction whether theTenderer that is selected as having submitted the lowest evaluatedand substantially responsive tender is qualified to perform theContract satisfactorily.

Factors not included therein shall not be used inthe evaluation of the Tenderer’s qualification.

59.3 An affirmative determination shall be a prerequisite for award of theContract to the Tenderer.

7.4.5 MECHANICAL SYSTEMS

BLADE / ROTORThe Wind Turbine is to be equipped with a 3-blade up wind Pitch/Stall regulatedmachines, with an improved overall efficiency. In turbines the rotor directly drives thesynchronous generator, without the use of a gearbox. The generated energy is fed intothe grid via a modern back-to-back full-power converter which controls the output, sogrid requirements can be met. This makes the turbine suitable to operate in weak grids.The blades are made of High efficiency FRP material, unidirectional high strength glassfiber, modernization craft vacuum cast technique synthesis.

HUB FRAME

The hub frame is the connection point of the blades to the main shaft. In theframe the synchronization mechanism and the blade hinges for flexible mountingof the blades are located. The blade hinges are provided with maintenance-freebearings. By means of a flanged connection the hub frame is mounted to the mainshaft.

On- grid CONTROLLER:The wind turbine is supplied with a latest updated microprocessor based controller withself diagnosing system, which secures the wind turbines unattended operation underall conditions. The controller with dump load is used to rectify frequency-variable outputvoltage of the wind turbine generator to DC voltage before feeding into the grid tieinverter. It is not only protecting against overvoltage for the wind turbine system, butproviding the replaced load when the grid is down.

Main features of On-grid Inverter

It comes with two sets of control systems, including PWM constant voltage system andthree-phase dump load system.

The PWM constant voltage control system is 120% of the rated power of the windturbine. In case of exceeding the power range of PWM, the three-phase dump loadsystem will start up automatically in a few seconds and stop after approximately ten ortwenty minutes. At that moment, the wind turbine will automatically re-start to resumethe power supply, ensuring the safe operation of the wind turbine generation system.

Under the condition of strong or super-strong winds, it is able to offer a constantvoltage output, guaranteeing the safe running of the inverter.

If the grid-connected inverter is disconnected, it also conducts a constant voltageoutput and waits for the resumption of inverter.

When the power grid is off, the three-phase dump load of the wind turbine grid tiecontroller will automatically start and the inverter will stop the power grid output.Immediately the grid power is resumed, this will enable the three-phase dump load tostop and the inverter to resume the power supply.

Designed with a surge arrester, the transient over voltage of wind generator will bekept within the allowable voltage range of this grid-tie controller or the strong lightningcurrent will be diverted into the earth directly, thus preventing the equipment fromdamages.


Front Panel should have LED indicator for indicating wind turbine status, dump load,three-phase dump load delay time, under voltage, grid power and DC output voltageindicators.

Its voltmeter indicates the DC output voltage of this device.

The wind turbine grid tie controller must be equipped with emergency stop switch. Incase of emergency, press down the emergency stop button in the front panel to cut offall power supply and the wind turbine will instantly perform the three-phase dump load.

It should be equipped with manual switch for dump load. By using this switch, the windturbine will carry out the three-phase dump load forcibly.

On-grid Inverter:

The generated energy is fed into the grid via a modern back-to-back full-powerconverter which controls the output, so grid requirements can be met. This converterfurther contains a number of programmable functions such as a capability to adjust thepower factor and a capability to automatically control the voltage in order to complywith stringent grid requirements.

Main features of On-grid Inverter

The main circuit adopts the DSP chip, IGBT modules, protection driver. Pure sine wave output, automatic synchronization grid connected, power factor approa
