Photovoltaic Modules
Yakama Power Sovereign Solar Project
Due November 14, 2025, at 5:00 pm Pacific Time
This Request for Quote (RFQ) invites qualified vendors to provide technical, cost, and commercial information for the supply of up to 7 MWdc of PV modules for the Yakama Nation’s Sovereign Solar Project, a grid-scale solar project owned and operated by Yakama Power on the Yakama Indian Reservation in Washington State.
The Sovereign Solar Project comprises a projected 78 MWdc ballasted, fixed-mount PV array being deployed by Yakama Power in phases along an existing 12-mile agricultural irrigation canal, which is being converted into an underground pipeline. The project exemplifies culturally and environmentally responsible energy development on Tribal lands by utilizing an existing, disturbed utility corridor for solar generation and optimized agricultural water distribution. The number of panels procured pursuant to this RFQ would be sufficient to construct the first mile of the project.
