This project is part of the Sustainable Aviation Fuels Innovation Centre (SAF-IC) aimed at promoting the production of sustainable aviation fuels. The procurement process for this tender is currently at the Award stage, with the contract effective from 1st November 2022 until 28th February 2023. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, allowing businesses to compete effectively for this opportunity. The end date for submitting tenders was 29th March 2022, and the project is classified under the industry category of energy products.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in sustainable energy solutions, particularly those with expertise in hydrogen production technology. Companies that specialise in proton exchange membrane (PEM) or solid oxide hydrogen electrolysers are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Furthermore, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary or community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate. Engaging in this project could enhance visibility and establish partnerships within the rapidly growing renewable energy sector.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Green Hydrogen Production and Storage Facility

Notice Description

The University of Sheffield (UoS) with funding from European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) is establishing a Sustainable Aviation Fuels Innovation Centre (SAF-IC) to support and promote the production and characterisation of decarbonised and sustainable aviation fuel. To broaden and support our extensive research, development, and deployment activities at the centre, we are looking to procure a proton exchange membrane (PEM) or a solid oxide hydrogen electrolyser. The Green Hydrogen Production and Storage Facility project will enable green hydrogen to be produced on site, whilst the device will be mains powered the centre boasts considerable renewable electricity production capacity. Hence, it is intended that the consumption of the H2 production facility will net off, against said production capacity, thereby resulting in credible green hydrogen production. One of the main purposes behind this procurement is the use of the generated hydrogen to produce renewable synthetic fuels. For indicative purposes only, the budget allocated to the Green Hydrogen Production Facility is c.PS1.2m while the budget allocated for the Storage Facility is c.PS150,000 (both figures are excluding VAT). This explains the estimated total value figure shown above of PS1,350,000
