Bidding for Decarbonisation and Energy Efficiency Tenders & Frameworks
We have developed this article as a result of an increasing demand from our clients on how to successfully work within the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme and how to be awarded these funds.
In 2019 our Government committed to reducing all greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050. The Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme provides grants/ funding for public sector bodies to fund heat decarbonisation and energy efficiency measures. The aim is to reduce emission in public building by 75% 2037.
Progress so far
Phase 1 - £1 billion in grants between 2021 and 2022. Phase 2 of the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme was launched in April 2021 and Phase 3 of the scheme was launched in October 2021 and will provide funding over to 2024/25.
Full scheme details can be found here. This is also a great way to see successful projects from both Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 of the scheme, which can help you plan.
Creating Tender Opportunities across the Supply Chain
The core scheme is for the public sector to bid for, such as Social Housing Providers and the NHS. However, once they receive those funds this then creates many tenders from these bodies who then need to procure the relevant goods, works and services via tenders.
At Thornton & Lowe we help both the public sector bid for the Decarbonisation Scheme, plus then working with our core SME clients who then need our bid writing support for their specific category once the successful public sector bidder advertises their contract.
Using our software, Tender Pipeline, you can also quickly monitor who are winning these decarbonisation and retrofit tenders. You can see how broad the tender opportunities are covering Housing, NHS and Education:
To support the growth of this sector and to meet the targets set by the Government many frameworks have been published to allow public sector buyers to quickly and compliantly source relevant suppliers for:
- Energy efficiency
- Decarbonisation
- Retrofit
- Demand management and renewables.

Investigation into the potential risk of entanglement of marine mammals with discarded fishing gear associated with floating offshore wind farmsUK Edinburgh Scottish GovernmentThe Offshore Wind Directorate invites a tender from a suitable contractor to define the risk of entanglement with discarded fishing gear around mooring lines at floating offshore wind farm (FOW) sites.The Scottish Government has set a range of targets to cut greenhouse gas emissions and to generate more energy from renewable sources. The Climate Change (Scotland) Act 2019 commits the Scottish Government to reach net zero emissions of all greenhouse gases by 2045.Offshore wind will play a vital part in meeting these targets, and is set to expand substantially in Scotland over the next decade and beyond, as evident by the recent ScotWind seabed leasing round by the Crown Estate Scotland. In January 2021 and through its clearing process in August 2022, Crown Estate Scotland has offered Option Agreements for 20 offshore wind projects around Scotland totalling 27.6GW of potential new offshore wind developments. The related offshore wind Innovation and Targeted Oil and Gas (INTOG) decarbonisation planning and leasing process outlined a further 5.4GW of projects.This project will assess entanglement risk by using monitoring tools such as load cells, remote operated vehicles (ROV) and other tools to identify the snag rate of abandoned, lost or discarded fishing gear (ALDFG) on mooring lines of FOW developments. This will be coupled with modelling of density and distribution of ALDFG across Scottish shelf waters or estimation of snag rate at a given site based on data detailing potential sources, identified prevalence based on available data and oceanographic drift. Should substantial risk be identified, the project should also consider and suggest potential mitigation measures and any associated future research needs to deliver these.This project will contribute to the overall process of the sustainable expansion of floating offshore wind in Scottish waters by improving the evidence base for environmental assessments and build on previous work seeking to establish the risk of entanglement.

The Evaluation of Market Ready agricultural Technology Options (TEMaRTO)UK London Defra Network eTendering PortalThe Delivering Clean Growth through Sustainable Intensification (CGSI) project has been critical in developing a rigorous, evidence-based decarbonisation pathway for agriculture that demonstrates compliance with the 5th and 6th carbon budget (CB) periods. This work directly informed development of the Carbon Budget Delivery Plan (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, 2023) and planning for Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) standards.<br/><br/>In preparation for the legal establishment of CB7 (2038 to 2042) it is time to refresh and update the evidence of the CGSI. We propose that this refresh looks to build on the successes of CGSI by filling evidence gaps around currently unquantified or exploratory measures in the CBDP, identify new mitigation technologies and innovations, refresh the trajectory in preparation for CB7, and explore potential for a long-term service agreement to test and implement evidence-based policy decisions. In advance, the successful contractor will receive a list of the unquantified/exploratory measures (also found in the published Net Zero growth plan), but also encouraged to explore other alternative emerging solutions. The refresh should adopt and enforce Maximum Technical Potential (MTP), ensuring the MTPs given for each measure are robust and credible. (MTP represents the maximum carbon savings that would be possible if we ignore limitations of cost, logistics and other non-market barriers). In reality the effective potential will be significantly lower or take longer than 30 years to deliver (i.e., not necessarily contributing to the 2050 target).

DoF - Collaborative Arrangement – Provision of Unmetered Electricity 2024-2026 (ID 4668771)UK BELFAST Department of FinanceThis contract will be for the supply of 100 per cent green Unmetered Electricity for a maximum term of two years. The anticipated commencement date shall be 1st April 2024. The Contract will be utilised by the following clients: • Department for Infrastructure (DfI); • NI Water (NIW); • The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI); • Northern Ireland Housing Executive (NIHE); and • Translink Each Client will be wholly responsible for the performance of its obligations under the contract. As CPD and its Clients are committed to the Central Government Energy Management Strategy and Action Plan to 2030 Contractors must provide 100 per cent green electricity. This commits all Central Government bodies to reduce costs and consumption consistent with draft Programme for Government (PFG) indicators on greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing security of supply. This is delivered through a target to reduce net energy consumption by 30 per cent by 2030 and to spend no more on energy in 2030 as we do today. In addition Department for Economy (DfE) has published an issues paper considering how best to advance proposals for an energy strategy that will enable new and challenging decarbonisation targets to be met. Not least among these is the UK Government legal requirement to achieve “net zero carbon” by 2050. Further details on this initiative can be found at https://www.economy-ni.gov.uk/energy-strategy-call-for-evidence and https://www.gov.uk/government/news/uk-becomes-first-major-economy-to-pass-net-zero-emissions-law DfI has embarked on a street lighting LED retrofit programme to replace existing sodium street lighting units with LED ones resulting in reduced consumption as the year progresses. Consequently, the retrofit projects will have an impact on this contract as they will have a direct effect on the consumption of unmetered electricity. The rates submitted must be honoured for the duration of the contract despite the likelihood of a reduction in the annual usage, the supplier should take this into consideration when submitting their response.

Private wire power purchase agreement for the provision of electricity at Torbay HospitalUK Torquay Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation TrustTorbay and South Devon NHS Trust have identified through their Net Zero Carbon Roadmap a potential for significant renewable energy installation to supply the electrical demand at Torbay Hospital. The site currently uses circa 11GWh of electricity per annum with a significant base load. The electricity usage is also projected to increase as the heating systems move over to heat pump based systems.<br/>Demand and output modelling has shown that a solar PV array of approximately 3.2MWp production would make a significant contribution to the site electrical demand with limited times of electricity export. Due to restriction on site restrictions it is not feasible to house an array of 3.2MWp on site so the Trust are looking at solutions for an off-site provision.<br/>To contribute to the Trust’s commitments to decarbonisation and reduce their gross emissions under mandatory reporting rules the off-site PV array will need to be ‘private wire’ with a direct connection to the Trust’s HV network. In this way the electricity supply is ‘behind the meter’ and directly reduces grid imported electricity.<br/>The Trust are interested in hearing from parties that are able to host a PV array close enough to the site of Torbay Hospital to provide a direct private wire connection and contract with the Trust through a Power Purchase Agreement. <br/>The Trust are seeking to enter into a power purchase agreement for the purchase of approximately 3.5GWh of electricity per annum for a contract term of up to 25 years.<br/>The value of contract is estimated over 25 years and may be higher or lower dependant on the amount of energy provided, length of contract term and fluctuations in indices. <br/>The Authority is using the Health Family Single eCommercial System e-tendering portal to conduct the procurement process ("the e-Tendering Portal").

UKRI-2128 - Evaluation of UK Battery Infrastructure to Support Rapid Scale up of Battery Material and Cell TechnologiesUK Swindon UK Research and InnovationThe UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) Faraday Battery Challenge (FBC) is a Government initiative that is enabling the decarbonisation of the UK’s transport sector whilst ensuring that the UK prospers from this transition. Established in 2017, the FBC has been designed to create an effective research, innovation and scale-up ecosystem that can deploy advancements in battery technology and secure a battery manufacturing base in the UK. This is being delivered through its three pillars: the Faraday Institution (FI), Innovate UK and the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre (UKBIC).This evaluation will assess the existing UK battery infrastructure available to UK PLC in the development of battery materials and cells, including academic institutions, private organisations offering contract services and open-access facilities. The existing available infrastructure will be assessed against current and likely future candidates for research/commercialisation in both battery materials and cell technologies to assess where there are gaps in support for companies progressing from lab pre-pilot pilot gigascale. The technologies to be assed have already been defined by an earlier study. Different scenarios will be developed for a government funded open-access facility which addresses materials scale up, cell-level scale up, and/or both to meet the gaps identified, and maximise cost benefit to the UK. The different scenarios will be evaluated to understand likely workflows for different technologies over a 5-15 year time horizon to understand how such facilities could be used and to further evaluate the cost-benefit of building infrastructure to support certain technologies at certain scales. As a secondary point, use by organisations outside of the UK and the global importance of such a facility in attracting foreign direct investment into the UK should be considered. The outputs of this report may be used as guidance for the formation of the scope and evaluation of bids on infrastructure to be built as part of the next phase of the Faraday Battery Challenge.The main aims of the tender exercise are to produce a report to:•Identify if there is a gap in UK scale up support that could be serviced by a battery, materials and/or cell scale up facility•Clearly define any gap in terms of technology, scale, equipment and facility requirements, in addition to type and quantity of work predicted over a 5-15 year timescale•Determine whether single or multiple facilities would be best placed to fill this gap through a series of scenarios•Understand the cost-risk profile of supporting scale up of specific technologies•Understand the limitations and challenges of building such a facility •Understand if a facility that meets the needs of the UK could be of international importance, potentially attract foreign direct investment into the UK, and de-risk investments into supporting specific technologies

Supply and Delivery of a 5G networkUK Glasgow University of StrathclydeFounded by the University of Strathclyde, Scottish Power Energy Networks and SSE Power Distribution, with support from Scottish Enterprise and the Scottish Funding Council, the Power Networks Demonstration Centre (PNDC), recently secured funding from Transport Scotland to create a low carbon transport and propulsion systems hub as part of the broader whole energy systems capability that will focus on the testing and de-risking of integrated low and zero emission transport systems in the whole system context. The funding grant makes up part of a wider project where the Scottish Government intend to work with partners to deliver its actions to change the culture so that electric vehicles (EVs) are preferred to petrol and diesel vehicles.The electrification of transport places increased demands on managing electricity distribution networks, and with that, significantly enhanced communications capability. It represents a significant step in the change to decarbonisation and reducing the use of fossil fuels such as these used in petrol and diesel vehicles. Such a change will present an overall increase and particularly extremely localised electrical demand when charging vehicles. Coordinating these rapid change in electrical demand requires a secure, reliable and fast communication network, such that electrical generation can match demand. This test 5G network will enable testing various communication architectures to enable this transition.This equipment will be additional to the current infrastructure at PNDC and must be connected to provide the enhanced capability.

Multi-disciplinary technical advice servicesUK EH6 6JH Energy Saving Trust LtdCARES is designed to accelerate progress towards the Scottish Government’s target of two gigawatt of community and locally owned renewable energy by 2030, and that at least half of all newly consented renewable energy projects will have an element of shared ownership. It supports the Scottish Government’s target to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045.CARES supports community and locally owned projects to generate their own energy or to invest in or benefit from larger commercial developments. Communities and rural businesses can access finance from the CARES programme in the form of loans and grants to investigate and develop renewable energy projects. CARES provides support to community organisations looking to secure, develop and ensure the effective management of community funds from renewable energy sources. The scheme is also open to national or regional non-profit organisations with charitable aims and objectives and faith groups.The CARES projects listed below are expected to be typical during the period of the Framework:- Decarbonisation of community buildings. Supporting communities to implement energy efficiency, solar photovoltaic systems (PV), energy storage and low carbon heating in community buildings and assets.- Community-based heat pump schemes. Community organisation support members of the community (homeowners, and other local heating loads) to install heat pumps and enabling measures.- Community solar hosted on third party roofs. Community-owned solar hosted on suitable rooftops in the local area i.e. local authority, public sector, and civic buildings.- Community-owned renewables connected to local loads through private wire installations. These may serve large energy loads, including buildings, centralised heat pump plants alongside civic or utility needs. These may result in reduced electricity cost for consumers and higher Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) prices for generators, which can create a strong business case.- Remote off-power grid communities to upgrade their energy systems to be resilient and prepare for net zero.- Local energy system and innovation projects have been and will continue to be supported to develop new business models.- Generation projects suppling energy to the grid using wind, hydro and PV.Case studies are available via https://www.localenergy.scot/projects-and-case-studies/case-studies/More information about the CARES programme can be found here: www.localenergy.scotGiven the complexity of projects, tight deadlines for delivery and potential to look for synergies across these projects, the Energy Saving Trust currently anticipates that it will appoint two to four multi-disciplinary technical consultancies who are able to provide support across the wide range of technical advice that is required to support the delivery of the CARES funding programme.Contractors appointed to this framework will provide detailed and complex advice on energy systems, storage, heat and transport to applicant organisations to assist them in the progression of projects.Example tasks include: Technical reviews Option appraisals Feasibility studies Procurement support Project planning Defining and preparing a risk register Defining and preparing a project plan Client engineers support services High level engineering support Cost consultancy services and value engineering Planning, building warrants and other consents Grid capacity and connections Due diligence and business case developmentThe range of potential projects and example technical advice services set out above to support them above is wide ranging.

Design Options for Nodal Pricing in GBUK London OfgemNodal pricing (also known as locational marginal pricing/LMP) is a form of market design used in more than 10 jurisdictions in various forms and is often considered best practice amongst electricity market designers worldwide.Nodal pricing for GB has gained traction in recent years. A 2015 CMA investigation into the potential of locational marginal pricing in GB estimated potential benefits of up to 70 million GBP per year in England and Wales alone. In 2020, Aurora produced a report for the Policy Exchange estimating average system savings from nodal pricing to be 2.1bn GBP per year across GB in the period 2025 - 2050.More recently, the Energy Systems Catapult (Oct 2021) concluded nodal pricing is the “first best approach to signalling locational value in a more deeply decarbonised, decentralised, and digitised electricity system”.Ofgem is keen to investigate further the potential of nodal pricing in enabling a cost-effective, secure pathway to Net Zero for the whole energy system. Greater locational and temporal market signals have the potential to drive more efficient use of system assets and lower total system costs by:* incentivising optimal demand and supply responses (in the right place at the right time);* stimulating innovation in storage and demand response in the places it is needed; and* supporting competition between demand/storage solutions and new network capacity.Nodal pricing would, however, represent major and complex reform to the GB electricity market. To inform Ofgem’s position on future market design, Ofgem is keen to develop a robust understanding of:* The technical models for LMP in GB* The associated costs, benefits, and distributional impacts of said models* The implementation requirements for a preferred model.This will require an overarching assessment of the value of nodal pricing to GB consumers and in achieving the UK’s decarbonisation targets, with this to be modelled as part of this project."See attached 2021-153 Design Options for Nodal Pricing in GB ITT document for further detail"
