Summary of the contracting process

The Green Distilleries Competition: Phase 2, initiated by the Business Energy and Industrial Strategy, targets the research and development services sector within the UK. This tender offers a total of £12.33 million under the £1 billion Net Zero Innovation Portfolio, announced in 2020, with a focus on decarbonising the distilling industry through innovative low-carbon technologies. The procurement method used is SBRI, and the tender period concluded on 5th May 2021. Contracts commenced on 5th October 2021 and will continue until 30th June 2023, funding up to £3 million per project across different lots aimed at fuel switching and enabling technologies.

This competition presents substantial growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in low-carbon technologies, fuel conversion, and energy solutions. Businesses in consultancy, engineering, and technical service sectors that can offer innovative approaches to reducing emissions in the distilling industry will be well-suited to compete for this funding. Engaging in this tender not only supports environmental objectives but also positions companies to be at the forefront of a growing market focused on sustainability and energy efficiency.

Notice Title

Green Distilleries Competition: Phase 2

Notice Description

The Green Distilleries Programme is a PS12.33m Competition, which falls under the PS1b Net Zero Innovation Portfolio which was announced as part of the government's 10-point plan in 2020. The Net Zero Innovation Portfolio will accelerate the commercialisation of innovative low-carbon technologies, systems and processes in the power, buildings and industrial sectors. The Green Distilleries Competition aims to facilitate the least cost and maximum value-added transition pathways to a lower-carbon economy. As the majority of distillery emissions come from generating heat (70% of the distillation industry's energy demand), this competition will focus on fuel switching. Stimulating early investment in the processes and technologies required for fuel switching to low carbon fuels for heat will directly impact the cost of decarbonising industry, heat, power, and transport. The Green Distilleries Competition is run in two Phases (feasibility and demonstration projects) and is split into two separate Lots (Lot 1 - will focus on fuel switching of the process and onsite power production, Lot 2 - will focus on innovation around fuel switch enabling technologies such as fuel conversion, transport and storage). PS1.01m was awarded to 17 Phase 1 (feasibility studies) projects and ended on 31/03/2021. Phase 2 is providing up to PS3,000,000 per project and will be funding 4 projects until 30/06/2023, during which successful projects can continue the development of their technology through to demonstration.
