Domestic Hydrogen Appliance Development Innovation SBRI Competition (Hy4Heat Work Package 4)
Notice Description
This SBRI competition focuses on the development of domestic hydrogen appliances to demonstrate the safe use of hydrogen as a fuel in providing domestic heating, hot water and cooking requirements. It aims to provide critical evidence of end use application, safety, in-use emissions, and functionality. The appliance types to be developed are boilers (combination and regular/system), cookers (stand-alone hobs, stand-alone ovens with grills and integrated freestanding cookers), fires (standard and mid-range) and innovative domestic hydrogen appliances. The total potential value of the Competition is up to PS9.0m (excl. VAT) although BEIS may allocate less than this depending on the quality of the applications received. Up to 24 innovation projects will be funded through the competition (a maximum of two or three projects across each of the appliance types). The Competition will be delivered in three main phases: Phase 1 (November 2018 to February 2019) - Solution design for a domestic hydrogen appliance to demonstrate that the concept appliance is viable. A maximum of PS960k will be available in total for Phase 1 solution designs, up to a value of PS30k per project. BEIS will be looking for a portfolio of appliance types and diversity of suppliers to support and encourage innovation. Phase 2a (April 2019 to March 2020) - Physical development of a first prototype (1.0) which will be tested for functionality and safety ready for demonstration trials. A maximum of PS6.0m (excl. VAT) will be available in total for Phase 2a projects. Phase 2b (April 2020 to March 2021) - Further prototype development (2.0) ready for community trials and fully certified for use in an occupied home. A maximum of PS2.0m (excl. VAT) will be available in total for Phase 2b projects. It is anticipated that between two and five projects per appliance type will be selected for Phase 1 and that two to three projects per appliance type will be selected to deliver Phases 2a and 2b. The number of projects funded will be dependent on the quality of applications and funding available within the value of the competition. Additional information: The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy ("BEIS") wishes to appoint contractors to develop certified domestic gas appliances (boilers, fires and cookers) that can be run on hydrogen under a SBRI competition as part of the hydrogen for heat (Hy4Heat) programme. The essential requirement for this competition is to prove that safe, efficient, and low Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) hydrogen appliances can be created as a 'like for like' alternative to existing methane appliances. Tenderers are invited to include 'dual fuel', 'hydrogen ready' or 'adaptable' appliances that can be developed alongside all essential deliverables within the competition timeframe and in line with the target funding. Submissions will be assessed against defined criteria. Proposals must: 1. Be at a pre-commercial stage of development 2. Address the Phase 1 scope 3. Describe all phases of the project 4. Clearly indicate the cost savings, compared to exclusive development contracts, provided to BEIS in line with pre-commercial procurement requirements 5. Be led by a single organisation acting as prime contractor with evidence of strong collaboration across consortia (if a consortium bid is proposed) How to Apply If you wish to take part in this SBRI competition please see the attached Invitation to Tender documents attached to this Notice.
