Description

Prior Information Notice (PIN)

Background

A recent feasibility study identified that the Energy Systems Catapult (ESC) working together with central government organisations might be uniquely positioned to accelerate energy system transformation measures at scale across the public sector estate. We now wish to further explore this opportunity.

We wish to conduct a 3.5 month challenge-based phase of work, to further develop transformation methodologies and business cases that build on the feasibility project work. We intend to Tender to select up to 4 suitably qualified and experienced suppliers, or consortia of suppliers, to undertake the challenge that seeks to: 1. develop future energy systems designs for up to 6 public sector campus-scale sites (as pathfinder projects) and 2. also to support a wider team, including the Energy Systems Catapult, develop a generic methodology that might be suitable to support the roll-out of more complex energy systems across the public sector estate.

Energy Systems Catapult, is seeking input on the design of this challenge through two Pre-Challenge/Tender workshops.

The half day workshops will provide an opportunity to receive information and influence a potentially key project in shaping the future UK energy landscape.

• 10am to 1pm on the 2nd August - Energy Systems Catapult Office in Birmingham
• 10am to 1pm on the 14th August - Future Cities Catapult Office in London.

The full PIN notice with details on how to express your interest and or register for the workshops is attached and can be downloaded.
