Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process for the installation of solar panels at three leisure centres, undertaken by Fenland District Council, has reached the completion and award stage. The project is classified under the CPV category for solar installation and is situated in the East of England region, United Kingdom. Using a selective procurement method, the council leveraged the Cambridgeshire County Council EPSC REFIT Framework, with the tender concluding on 17 February 2025. The contract period spanned from 20 February 2025 to 9 June 2025, with EQUANS REGENERATION (APOLLO) LIMITED identified as the supplier. This initiative involved a sizeable budget of £219,230.97.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for large businesses specialising in renewable energy installations to contribute to sustainable infrastructure projects. Companies well-versed in solar technology could leverage similar framework agreements to establish or expand their presence within regional councils. Although the procurement was not specifically targeted at SMEs or VCSEs, larger firms capable of fulfilling substantial contracts would be poised to benefit from the burgeoning demand for energy-efficient solutions within public amenities and leisure sectors.
