Description

Central Swindon North Parish Council, invite suitably qualified Environmental & Energy Consultants to carry out energy & environmental assessments of it's corporate building portfolio in accordance with its Heat Decarbonisation Plan Programme (which must follow the guidance set by Salix).

The purpose of a HDP is to describe how CSNPC intends to replace fossil fuel reliant systems with low carbon alternatives (e.g. Heat Pumps). To meet the challenge of reducing our carbon footprint, the council will need to 'decarbonise' their buildings.

The HDP will describe the current state of the organisation's energy use and its plans for reducing and/or decarbonising its energy use. The plan will outline what the organisation has already done, what it is currently doing, what it plans to do in the future. The plan will explain what actions are going to be taken, over what timescales, and the intended outcomes.
The level of design work will reach RIBA Stage 2 development with some required activities covering RIBA 3 stage specifically to support preparation and submission of DNO Applications. The interventions will consider all relevant heat loss aspects and Low Carbon Heating efficiencies as part of a whole building and optional appraisal of low carbon heating solutions. Other enabling and energy efficiency measures will be considered such as lighting upgrades, BMS upgrades, renewable generation such as PV and ways to decarbonise Hot Water systems be it as part of a whole building Low Carbon solution or dedicated non fossil fuel hot water generation. The HDPs will consider all relevant external factors, enabling works, planning & programme and Risk Assessments.

The Council are seeking a consultancy to provide Heat Decarbonisation Plans (HDP) to cover 14 buildings (all within a 3 mile radius).
