The brief

This MEN aims to gather information from potential suppliers on solutions and capabilities in relation to the provision of a Fusion Plant Controls Partner.

This is not a request for quotation but a preliminary stage to assess the market which will assist with assessing market capabilities and shaping specification.

Suppliers responding to this MEN will have the opportunity to contribute insights that may shape the final tender requirements.

All answers and correspondence will be used for market sounding purposes only and will be treated confidentially.

UK Fusion Energy Ltd (UKFE) are considering the approach to establishing a Whole Plant Control System for the STEP Power Plant (SPP).

In doing so it recognises that this system will be a first of a kind (FOAK) in requiring plant control systems able to manage the unique requirements of fusion, whilst also utilising more conventional plant control systems.

To address this UKFE anticipates the need to procure services to develop a definition of fusion plant control, the systems and technology required to achieve this, and integration with conventional plant control infrastructure.

UKFE wishes to engage with the market to test its assumptions regarding novelty of the fusion challenge, to understand the current market landscape for the development of this technology, and to test proposals on direction of travel and contracting methodology for achieving an integrated whole plant control system for the SPP.
