SUMMARY
On March 10, 2022, Canada released the Request for Expressions of Interest (RFEOI) for the HFR Project, which generated meaningful feedback from interested industry participants.The objective of the RFEOI was to share information with interested industry participants and obtain feedback on the HFR Project, including with respect to transaction and procurement structure.Meetings were held to discuss responses in greater detail, which was helpful for Canada to better understand the specific feedback raised by the market. Canada would like to take this opportunity to thank Interested Parties for their participation in this exercise.
This RFEOI Update is being provided to summarize certain key themes stemming from the RFEOI process and provide additional information and clarifications to some elements of the HFR Project and its anticipated Procurement Phase prior to the expected launch of the RFQ, now planned for January 2023.
