The buyer has elected to have their personal and contact details hidden. These details will be revealed at the buyers discretion.

Energy Queensland Limited (EQL) intends to conduct an open Request for Tender for the supply and delivery of Substation Battery Chargers. The tender will be released and managed through SAP Ariba.

This notice is intended to identify suppliers interested in participating in the upcoming RFT and to facilitate supplier registration in EQL’s SAP Ariba environment. Registration of interest does not constitute prequalification, create any commitment by EQL, or guarantee that a supplier will be invited to participate in or awarded any contract arising from the RFT.

SCOPE:

The proposed scope covers the supply and delivery of stationary DC battery chargers and associated equipment for use across EQL’s substation network. The detailed technical requirements and proposed equipment configurations are set out in the attached EQL Technical Specification for Substation DC Battery Chargers, S10034540.

Substation battery chargers are critical assets that maintain station batteries in a fully charged condition and provide regulated DC supply to substation protection, control and communication systems.These systems are required to operate reliably under a range of environmental and operating conditions and must meet strict technical, safety and compliance requirements.

Interested suppliers should review the attached Technical Specification S10034540 and consider whether they have the technical capability, experience, manufacturing and supply-chain capacity, quality systems and support arrangements necessary to meet EQL’s requirements. Subject to final internal approvals, the RFT is currently expected to be released through SAP Ariba on or about 1 September 2026. The RFT documentation is expected to include the proposed Standing Offer, Technical Specification, Technical Schedules, pricing schedules and other response schedules. EQL reserves the right to amend the proposed release date.

Suppliers wishing to participate must be registered in EQL’s SAP Ariba supplier environment and must register their interest in accordance with the instructions below. Registration in SAP Ariba does not constitute a tender response. Tender responses must be submitted through the applicable SAP Ariba event after the RFT is published.
