From the meeting
The document described use of ETAP (Electrical Transient Analyzer Program) to simulate a proposed upgrade that could give Colgate's 480V panel more versatility for powering the plant. Staff were building equivalent models, reviewing single-line diagrams, and checking load and fault conditions. This is a pre-RFP engineering study that can lead into design, controls, and electrical upgrade work.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
