Description

The Council wishes to appoint suitably qualified consultant or consultants to undertake this feasibility study that will be commissioned in two parts:

o Part 1: will review the boundary of the study area, update (as required) the previous energy demand and supply assessment and consider a range of technical options, including: the fuel(s) to be used, building suitability and heat/cooling/power demand profiles, distribution pipe routes, and connections into buildings. The study will also consider electricity private wire opportunities and district cooling and then test commercial viability of the preferred option(s). The initial techno-economic modelling will assess whether the lifecycle cost of viable scheme(s) identified are recoverable over a reasonable financial period, and at an attractive cost to potential heat suppliers and customers.

o Part 2: If the results are favourable, and stakeholders are interested in pursuing the preferred heat network option(s), a deeper level of technical and economic modelling will follow in Part 2; refining or confirming assumptions, routes and connections and developing the economic model to allow commercial sensitivities to be tested.

Please register via the Council's e-procurement system - CSW-JETS http://www.csw-jets.co.uk/

CSW-JETS is a sub-regional e-tendering portal run by In-tend. Since February 2010, Coventry, Solihull, Warwickshire, Nuneaton and Bedworth and Rugby Councils have been working together as a shared procurement service. Along with Solihull Community Housing, we have joined together to bring you a collaborative E-Tendering portal.

CSW-JETS enables us to advertise our opportunities across all authorities through the same system. This means that there is a single point of contact for procurement in the sub-region so you only have to register once to receive notifications for all authorities. Registering on the portal will make it easier for local suppliers to find, respond to and be alerted to tender opportunities.

Registration is free, and takes just a few minutes. When complete, you will be able to express interest in any of the Councils'/Authorities' opportunities when they are made available including this tender. In addition, we will be able to access your details whenever we have a requirement, and you may then be invited to tender or quote for work.
