PHILADELPHIA, January 9, 2023 — The Philadelphia Energy Authority (PEA) has released a Request for Information (RFI) on behalf of the Philadelphia Water Department (PWD) for Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) Development at Wastewater Pollution Control Plants.

On behalf of the PWD, the PEA invites interested parties to respond to the RFI with information regarding program and/or project structures that would make RNG development feasible for the Department. The PEA is also requesting information regarding projects developed with similarly sized governments or institutions.

PWD is looking for information from manufacturers, research institutions, utilities, and other relevant organizations regarding their technology solutions, business models, and implementation best practices. Information provided by Respondents may help to develop a potential future contract opportunity. This RFI will also help PWD to identify interest in such a potential contract opportunity.

Responses to this RFI could help shape potential future contract opportunities. Responding to the RFI is not a requirement for participation in potential future offerings, nor does it preclude an application from participating in a potential future opportunity. 

Respondents must submit their Responses electronically to: Samantha O’Connor at Samantha.OConnor@phila.gov and include “PWD RNG RFI – [Firm Name]” in the email subject line no later than Friday, March 17.
