Summary of the contracting process

Highways England is conducting a tender titled "T0277 TETI0035 Current and potential future feedstock availability for low carbon transport fuels in the UK," which aims to assess the availability of sustainable feedstocks for low carbon fuels in the transport sector from now until 2050. This tender falls under the research and development services category and is classified as a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender was awarded on 28 February 2022, and the contract period is set from the same date until 30 September 2022. The delivery will primarily take place in the North East of the United Kingdom, with a total contract value of £99,183.09.

This procurement process presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in environmental consultancy and research services, particularly those with a focus on sustainable fuels. Companies that can provide insights into feedstock availability and the impacts of various agricultural practices on carbon emissions will be well-suited to compete for future contracts related to low carbon transport initiatives. The focus on waste-derived fuels and sustainable practices creates a niche market for innovative firms aiming to support the UK's transition to greener transport solutions.

Notice Information

Notice Title

T0277 TETI0035 Current and potential future feedstock availability for low carbon transport fuels in the UK

Notice Description

The project is expected to provide a comprehensive overview of the availability of sustainable feedstocks for low carbon fuels used in the UK transport sector, such as biofuels, renewable fuels of non-biological origin and recycled carbon fuels, between now and 2050. This includes a review of different resource estimates for individual feedstocks and/or categories as well as the different factors that could impact on availability, highlighting opportunities and risks. Feedstocks associated with higher risk of land use change and other uses, such as food and feed crops, are to be considered but are considered a lower priority in view of current shares of waste-derived fuels in the UK and policies in place to promote their use further. The report will also set out what type of fuels may be produced from these feedstocks, including information on processing routes and greenhouse gas performance. Given the global nature of renewable fuels markets, the report should cover both feedstocks from domestic production and imports, differentiating clearly between the two. On imports, where possible information on the potential countries of origin should be included.
