The procurement, classified under "Research and development services and related consultancy services," covers multiple regions, including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, and Europe, aiming to address the transition away from the Renewables Obligation scheme. The procurement stage is in the Award phase, with the contract period starting on 21st May 2026 and concluding on 31st May 2027.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses operating in the legal consultancy sector, particularly those experienced in handling major projects and complex advice within the energy and environmental sectors. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) could find opportunities for collaboration or subcontracting due to the scale and scope of the project. Engaging with this type of procurement could benefit businesses aiming to establish or expand their presence in the governmental legal consultancy domain, as it involves complex advisory services necessary for navigating governmental policy changes impacting the renewable energy sector.

Notice Title

Landfill Gas - CfD Legal

Notice Description

***** THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION ***** This procurement is being concluded following a mini competition under the CCS - RM6360 Legal Panel for Government framework, Lot 2: Major Projects and Complex Advice Landfill gas (LfG) generators are currently subsidised under the Renewables Obligation (RO) scheme, however, this scheme is coming to an end, and Government have announced that it will not be extended. Contracts under this scheme begin to expire from April 2027, with a substantial proportion of LfG generation losing support in the first year. Without subsidy, and sufficient financial incentive, we expect many of these sites will cease their electricity generation operations.
