The tender, titled "HVO for Leicestershire County Council Jan 2026," is categorised under petroleum products, fuels, electricity, and other energy sources. The project is located in England, United Kingdom. The procurement method was a call-off from the ESPO Liquid Fuels 301_22 framework, under Lot 51, utilising an "Other -" procurement approach. The tender process reached the award stage, with a contract period spanning from the 5th to the 27th of February, 2026.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses that specialise in the supply of renewable energy products, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which are highlighted as suitable for this tender. Participation in such a framework offers businesses the chance to form a partnership with a large public institution like Leicestershire County Council, supporting the municipality’s sustainability initiatives. While Crown Oil Ltd has been awarded the contract, similar opportunities in this sector exist for businesses with the capability to supply biofuels and other energy-efficient solutions. Establishing a presence in this sector could lead to further growth and diversification into more public procurement avenues.
