Description
This electrical trade tender concerns upgrading the power capacity of the Abonado 3215 substation, which provides power to the desalination plant in Mogán, Canary Islands, Spain. Contractors should anticipate work related to increasing the electrical supply capabilities of an existing substation. This likely involves replacing or upgrading transformers, switchgear, cabling, protection systems, and potentially other related infrastructure within the substation. While specific CPV codes are unavailable, electrical contractors with experience in substation upgrades for critical infrastructure should consider this tender.
The project's published value is approximately €154,765.72, suggesting a relatively small to medium-sized upgrade project. However, working on a live substation connected to a vital facility (desalination plant) introduces complexity. Contractors must consider strict safety protocols, the potential for outages/service interruptions, and the need for meticulous planning and coordination. The short timeframe between publication (2026-03-18) and the deadline (2026-04-10) indicates a fast-moving procurement process, requiring a rapid assessment of the requirements and efficient tender preparation. The singular published value, rather than a range, might indicate that it is an auction process.
