Description

This study requires consultants to provide analyses of the types and levels of constraints on the local distribution network in the Greater Cambridge area and how this impacts the delivery of housing, jobs, clean energy projects and the electrification of transport to improve air quality. The analyses will need to quantify these impacts on the growth targets and timescales agreed by Government with the Greater Cambridge Partnership as part of the Cambridge City Deal https://www.greatercambridge.org.uk/ Drawing on the analyses, the consultants will need to identify and recommend the most effective interventions that the Greater Cambridge Partnership could facilitate, and, or, invest in to deliver a modern energy system that unlocks immediate barriers to, and supports continuing, delivery of economic growth, housing development, clean energy projects, electrification of transport and improving air quality.
