Sample MEP and solar review report

This is the kind of report you receive from a scoped document review: each finding has a source reference, the issue and the action needed.

Everything in this sample is fictional. The project, drawings, figures and findings do not come from a client project. A review is not a certification of compliance, and it is not legal advice. Actual checks and outputs depend on the appointment.

1. Project and documents

Project	Fictional food packaging factory, 6,000 m²
Location	Fictional site near Nairobi, Kenya, at about 1,800 m
Stage	Before MEP tender and before signing a solar contract
Disciplines reviewed	Electrical, mechanical, plumbing, fire and solar
Load data	Highest recorded demand in the past 12 months: 620 kW
Solar proposal	900 kWp rooftop system from an installer
Standby power	750 kVA generator

Documents reviewed

Electrical	E-01 single-line diagram, E-05 generator schedule, BOQ section 4
Mechanical	M-C1 cooling calculation, M-02 equipment schedule
Plumbing	P-02 water supply layout
Fire	F-01 fire services layout, BOQ section 6
Solar	Installer proposal P-01 to P-05
Other disciplines	A-01 architecture, S-05 roof structure, C-03 site services

2. Summary

We recorded 12 findings. The solar size and savings claim should be settled before signing, because they affect the investment case. The generator, outage interface, fire water and cooling basis should be settled before tender, so that bidders price the same scope.

3. Issue register

The half-unit credit in S-02 illustrates the energy-credit rule in EPRA's published 2024 regulations. It is not a tariff or payback forecast. Your local team confirms the current agreement and applicable bill components.

No.	Priority	Reference	Observation	Action to resolve
S-01	High	Proposal P-02 / load data	The proposal quotes 900 kWp of modules and records 620 kW maximum demand, but does not reconcile module DC capacity, inverter AC output and the installed capacity accepted by the licensee. These headline figures alone do not establish eligibility.	Resolve the size basis. Ask the registered engineer and licensee how installed capacity is measured for this site.
S-02	High	Savings model P-05	The model counts all 1,300,000 kWh as full-rate energy offset, although 18% is exported. With an illustrative half-unit credit, 234,000 exported kWh becomes 117,000 credited kWh. Adding 1,066,000 kWh used on site gives 1,183,000 kWh of energy offset: 9% below the original figure, before expiry or other bill components.	Re-run the model for self-use, net metering and no-export cases.
E-01	High	Generator schedule E-05	The 750 kVA rating is stated at standard conditions, with no output stated for a site at about 1,800 m.	Get the site-rated output from the supplier and recheck the essential load.
E-02	High	Single-line E-01 / proposal P-04	No interlock or protection is shown between solar, grid and generator during an outage.	Define the interface and who designs, supplies and tests it.
F-01	High	Fire F-01 / civil C-03	The fire water tank is 300 m³ on the fire layout and 250 m³ on the site services drawing.	Confirm the required capacity from the fire design basis, then coordinate both drawings.
M-01	High	Cooling calculation M-C1	The calculation does not state its outdoor design conditions or site altitude.	Record the agreed conditions and confirm whether the selections change.
S-03	Medium	Proposal P-03 / structure S-05	The proposal assumes the roof can carry the modules, but S-05 shows no allowance for them.	Get the structural engineer's written confirmation before fixing the layout.
E-03	Medium	Single-line E-01 / BOQ section 4	The automatic transfer switch on the single-line diagram has no matching BOQ item.	Add the item or confirm which package includes it.
F-02	Medium	Fire F-01 / BOQ section 6	The pump room valves and test line are drawn but not itemised.	Add the items or confirm the package boundary.
M-02	Medium	Equipment schedule M-02 / specification	Equipment is scheduled, but no one is named as responsible for controls and their interfaces.	Agree the controls scope before comparing bids.
P-01	Medium	Plumbing P-02 / structure S-05	The roof tank shown on the plumbing layout does not appear on the structural drawing.	Confirm the tank location and the structural allowance.
G-01	Low	Drawing register / BOQ cover	The register lists revision B for the electrical drawings, while the BOQ refers to revision A.	Issue the BOQ against the current revision.

4. Questions for your registered engineer

Does the net metering limit apply to module capacity, inverter capacity or another measure on this site?
Is a separate route needed if the owner wants more than the limit allows?
Which standards and editions form the design basis for each discipline?
Which approvals need these drawings, and at what stage?

5. What this review did not cover

Site inspection or measurement.
Quantity remeasurement, pricing or redesign.
Certification, signing or authority submissions.
Confirmation of local legal requirements, which stays with the registered local team.
