When this comes round again

BEIS publishes Petroleum, Fuel & Energy Products work continuously — 7 notices, roughly one every 15 days. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.

24% of BEIS’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →

The brief

**** Please note, this is a Future Opportunity Notice and Not a Call for Competition **** The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) wishes to establish a Framework Agreement of consultants to support the Heat Network.

Background The Energy White Paper, Heat & Buildings Strategy, and Net Zero Strategy have committed to introducing heat network zoning in England by 2025.

Heat network zoning will revolutionise the development of heat networks in towns and cities across England.

By designating zones where heat networks offer the most cost-effective solution for decarbonising heat, local authorities and heat network developers can swiftly identify where new large-scale strategic heat networks should be constructed.

This strategic approach aims to enhance the efficiency of the heat network development process, helping to streamline and target the multi-billion-pound investment needed to deliver heat networks on the scale required to meet the UK's net-zero goals.

The development of the heat network zoning process will be supported by the Energy Act, providing the government with the authority to implement zoning in England.

This will involve creating a nationwide methodology for identifying and designating heat network zones, establishing a Zoning Coordinator role, and possibly a Central Authority to oversee zoning at a national level.

Access to skilled consultants is vital for the zoning process's success, and this procurement aims to establish a consultant framework as we move from the pilot phase towards a business-as-usual process in line with the national heat network zoning policy coming into force in 2025. ** Please refer to the attached document entitled ' BE23183 - Future Opportunity Notice' for further details on this upcoming requirement.
