SWEG Südwestdeutsche Landesverkehrs-GmbH (SWEG for short, hereinafter also referred to as the vergabestelle) is a transport company with state participation and, together with subsidiaries, operates regular bus services in the urban and intercity area (ÖPNV) as well as local rail passenger transport (SPNV) in numerous regions of Baden-Württemberg.

For itself and its operating subsidiary, SWEG Bahn Stuttgart GmbH (SBS for short), SWEG intends to conclude supply contracts for traction power (green electricity) in DB Energie's 16.7 Hz traction power grid for the delivery year 2023 (and optionally 2024).

The conclusion of the respective electricity supply contract is carried out by the individual customers in their own name and for their own account. SWEG carries out the award procedure as a contracting authority for itself and SWEG Bahn Stuttgart GmbH.

The subject of the invitation to tender are the following contracts for the supply and purchase of traction power for SWEG and SBS:

1.) Supply contract for the purchase and delivery of traction power in full supply including balancing energy in the 16.7 Hz traction power network of DB Energie GmbH for SWEG (hereinafter referred to as "traction power supply contract SWEG").

2.) Supply contract for the purchase and delivery of traction power in full supply including balancing energy in the 16.7 Hz traction power network of DB Energie GmbH for SBS (hereinafter referred to as "traction power supply contract SBS").

In addition to the supply of electricity in full supply, the respective contract also includes services, including the preparation of invoice data in a special format (by arrangement) and for different accounting groups, the daily demand calculation every 15 minutes and the billing of grid fees, levies and taxes. As a procurement model, procurement via spot and derivatives markets is sought.

The net purchase of traction power (after recovery) is expected to amount to 66 GwH (+/- 20%) for the delivery year 2023.

For network 9b, load profile data from the years 2021 (Part A, Appendix 4) and 2022 (Part A, Appendix 5) are available. Since operations were only ramped up in 2021 due to delayed vehicle deliveries, this data is only of limited significance. The load profile data from 2022 better reflect the expected operation for 2023.

Reliable load profile data are available for Grid 1 from 2021 (Part A, Appendix 3).
