Project Title: Seattle Center Armory Emergency Generator Electrical Engineer

Submittals Due by: 3:00 PM PDT, 5/29/2024

Scope of Services: The objective of this project is to provide emergency power to the Armory and Fisher Pavilion. The project will remove a 60+ year old generator and associated controls located in the Armory (currently serving only the Armory) and replace it with a new sustainably powered generator capable of supporting emergency functions in both the Armory and Fisher Pavilion.

The new sustainable emergency generator may be fueled by a combination of solar, wind, fuel cell, and diesel. These sustainable power sources should be designed to feed into a 1,106kWh battery storage system that will connect to the generator for use during emergency situations. DERs (Distributed Energy Resources) are used when power and fuel sources to the facilities are cut off. Solar and wind will continue to operate without outside fuel lines and will reduce carbon emissions. Additionally, the generator will have the ability to be diesel powered to improve the reliability and redundancy of the system. Our proposed solution builds resiliency, sustainability, and energy efficiency into the Seattle Center Emergency Operations facilities.

The purpose of this Request for Qualifications is to select a qualified Electrical Engineering firm and sub-consultant team to lead the design of the new sustainable emergency generator system and removal of the existing generator.
