If an applicant is unable to provide any required evidence for a valid reason, it may demonstrate its ability to perform by submitting other appropriate evidence.

In the case of a loan of qualifications pursuant to Section 47 SektVO, particularly where subcontractors are involved, the relevant supporting documents must be submitted for the relevant companies.

Only the references (technical and professional ability) are decisive for the assessment of suitability. The information and evidence listed under TL are used to assess the references. A maximum total of 1,000 points can be achieved here. The proofs PL and WL are not evaluated qualitatively. The evaluation of technical and professional ability is carried out in a relative comparison of the applicants with each other on the basis of the following scale/grade levels. The maximum number of points achievable is multiplied by the weighting factor (percentage) achieved in each case: - 100% = very good: Applicant meets the requirements with regard to the suitability criterion to the very highest degree, - 80% = good: Applicant meets the requirements of the suitability criterion to the highest degree, - 60% = fully satisfactory: applicant meets the requirements of the suitability criterion to a high degree, - 40% = satisfactory: applicant satisfactorily fulfills the requirements with regard to the suitability criterion, - 20% = sufficient: the applicant meets the requirements of the suitability criterion to a just sufficient degree. In the range between 0% and 100%, intermediate grade levels can be formed (10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, 90%) to take into account a tendency towards the higher grade level in each case. An evaluation of a suitability criterion (technical and professional ability) with 20% or less would correspond to a complete non-fulfillment of the respective suitability criterion, which would result in the exclusion of the participation application (knock-out criterion). These are suitability criteria, not award criteria. If several bidders achieve the same total score and the number of bidders exceeds the planned number of bidders to be invited to negotiate, TEP reserves the option to draw lots for the negotiation procedure among the remaining bidders with equal scores.

TL. Experience in the execution of comparable services, evidenced by reference projects (realized similar projects in connection with delivery and service for battery storage projects in the last maximum of 5 years (self-declarations)). Similiar means a reference project with a minimum capacity of 12 MWh. The reference projects must have been carried out or completed within the last 5 years. In the case of applicant consortia, corresponding information can be submitted for the applicant consortium as a whole. The references are to be submitted in accordance with the form from the application documents with the information specified therein, in particular including project start and actual operating period.If possible, please submit no more than 5 references and sort them according to their relevance and comparability with the subject of the tender. In individual cases, TEP may request the submission of reference certificates from the reference clients. Minimum level of standard: The bidder must have realized at least three similar reference projects with a minimum capacity of 12 MWh of the same size in Germany, or, if not possible at least in the European Union.
