Fulfillment of use cases
A description showing\n a clear pathway of getting the solution to ensure back-up supply (use case 1) is scored\n positive. A solution which has been proven in other setups/projects is scored positively.\n
• Solutions which fulfill use case 1, use case 2 and use case 3 are getting the\n highest score.
• Solutions which only fulfill use case 1 and either use case\n 2 or 3 get a medium score.
• Solutions which only fulfill use case 1 get a lower\n medium score.
• Solutions which only fulfill use case 2 and 3 get a lower score.
•\n Solutions which only fulfill either use case 2 or 3 get the lowest score.
• Solutions\n which partly fulfill use 2 are scored lower than those able to deliver all services.\n
Experience with compliance with grid connection requirements
Solutions where\n the inverter are on the positive list or the system has been approved for grid connection\n in Denmark in earlier projects will get a higher score. Systems where the documentation\n of compliance with grid connection requirements in other European countries will get\n a medium score.

All prices must be fixed and all-inclusive prices (including\n packing, freight, taxes, insurance, installation, commissioning, test operation and\n training.)
When evaluating prices stated in Danish Kroner (DKK) it will be converted\n into
Euro (EUR) according to an exchange rate of DKK/EUR 7.45.
The evaluation\n of the sub-criteria “Price” is based on the total tender sum comprising the following\n price elements:
• The total price for the basic scope of supply according to\n the Bid list
• The total price for the options according to the Bid list (corrected\n sum,
according to description below)
• The total price for optional spare\n parts specified in Annex 1D
(according to description below)
Basic scope of\n supply
The total price stated in the Bid list, based on the basic scope of supply,\n specified in the Technical Specifications.
The evaluated price for the basic\n scope of supply parts will be evaluated 100%.
Options
The prices for options\n will be based on the scope specified in the Technical
Specifications
The\n evaluated price for the options parts will be evaluated 100%.
Optional spare parts
The\n total price for optional spare parts according to Annex 1C.
The evaluated price\n for the optional spare parts will be evaluated 100%.
The total Price used for\n evaluation is the sum of the above-mentioned deliveries.
The lowest price for\n “total price” will receive the highest score (10) on a scale from 0–10. The other\n tenderers will receive points relative to the best price. The other tenders will be\n scored based on the relative difference to the highest score, where the tender with\n a price that is 60% higher (or more) will receive 0 points.
The award of points\n for the other offers will be calculated according to the following formula:
The\n tender’s points = Maximum point – (Maximum point/(60% × “lowest price\")) × (The tenders\n \"Price\" – “lowest price\").\n Kategori for tildelingskriteriet vægt: Vægtning (procentdel, præcis)Tildelingskriterium talværdi: 30\n \n \n \n 5.1.11 TilbudsdokumenterSprog, som udbudsdokumenterne er officielt tilgængelige på: engelsk\n Frist for anmodning om yderligere oplysninger: 23-03-2026 23:00 +00:00\n Adresse på udbudsdokumenterne: https://www.ethics.dk/ethics/eo#/40b11602-a1ac-4cb7-859f-3eeb0305245f/publicMaterial\n \n 5.1.12 TilbudsvilkårVilkår for proceduren:Den påtænkte dato for afsendelse af opfordringerne til at afgive tilbud: 11-05-2026\n \n Vilkår for indgivelse:Elektronisk indgivelse: Påkrævet\n Indgivelsesadresse: https://www.ethics.dk/ethics/eo#/40b11602-a1ac-4cb7-859f-3eeb0305245f/homepage\n Sprog, som tilbud og ansøgninger om deltagelse kan indgives på: engelsk\n Elektronisk katalog: Ikke tilladt\n Alternative tilbud: Ikke tilladt\n Tilbudsgivere kan indgive mere end ét tilbud: Ikke tilladt\n Beskrivelse af den finansielle garanti: The Contractor shall, no later than 14 days after the Commencement Date, issue a performance\n guarantee and an anvance payment bond.

When evaluating prices stated in Danish Kroner (DKK) it will be converted\n into
Euro (EUR) according to an exchange rate of DKK/EUR 7.45.
The evaluation\n of the sub-criteria “Price” is based on the total tender sum comprising the following\n price elements:
• The total price for the basic scope of supply according to\n the Bid list
• The total price for the options according to the Bid list (corrected\n sum,
according to description below)
• The total price for optional spare\n parts specified in Annex 1D
(according to description below)
Basic scope of\n supply
The total price stated in the Bid list, based on the basic scope of supply,\n specified in the Technical Specifications.
The evaluated price for the basic\n scope of supply parts will be evaluated 100%.
Options
The prices for options\n will be based on the scope specified in the Technical
Specifications
The\n evaluated price for the options parts will be evaluated 100%.
Optional spare parts
The\n total price for optional spare parts according to Annex 1C.
The evaluated price\n for the optional spare parts will be evaluated 100%.
The total Price used for\n evaluation is the sum of the above-mentioned deliveries.
The lowest price for\n “total price” will receive the highest score (10) on a scale from 0–10. The other\n tenderers will receive points relative to the best price. The other tenders will be\n scored based on the relative difference to the highest score, where the tender with\n a price that is 60% higher (or more) will receive 0 points.
The award of points\n for the other offers will be calculated according to the following formula:
The\n tender’s points = Maximum point – (Maximum point/(60% × “lowest price\")) × (The tenders\n \"Price\" – “lowest price\").\n Category of award weight criterion: Weight (percentage, exact)Award criterion number: 30\n \n \n \n 5.1.11 Procurement documentsLanguages in which the procurement documents are officially available: English\n Deadline for requesting additional information: 23-03-2026 23:00 +00:00\n Address of the procurement documents: https://www.ethics.dk/ethics/eo#/40b11602-a1ac-4cb7-859f-3eeb0305245f/publicMaterial\n \n 5.1.12 Terms of procurementTerms of the procedure:Estimated date of dispatch of the invitations to submit tenders: 11-05-2026\n \n Terms of submission:Electronic submission: Required\n Address for submission: https://www.ethics.dk/ethics/eo#/40b11602-a1ac-4cb7-859f-3eeb0305245f/homepage\n Languages in which tenders or requests to participate may be submitted: English\n Electronic catalogue: Not allowed\n \n Tenderers may submit more than one tender: Not allowed\n Description of the financial guarantee: The Contractor shall, no later than 14 days after the Commencement Date, issue a performance\n guarantee and an anvance payment bond.
