This solicitation is for selection of one (1) Pacific Northwest-based subcontractor to provide stakeholder outreach and engagement for Energy Transitions Initiative Partnership Project with the goal of developing a network of support for island and remote communities aiming to develop resilient energy systems. A Pacific Northwest-based subcontract will be located in the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, or Northern California (north of I-80). This support will include identification of vulnerable communities as well as stakeholder engagement on the topics of energy, resilience, energy education, and development and implementation of long-term energy planning. The objective is to select a subcontractor which has comprehensive, extensive community connections with and coverage of island and remote communities within the Pacific Northwest region of the U.S. The subcontractor will need to demonstrate specific community knowledge and interactions within the Pacific Northwest region. Using existing community networks, the subcontractor will develop energy expertise and engagement with the national laboratory system. Showcasing technical expertise in a specific energy field is not necessary for this effort, although an ability to develop or articulate the core energy issues and challenges from the perspective of local communities is valuable. Demonstrated areas of strength should include community development and local cultural knowledge.
