The contract was awarded to Verian Group UK Limited on 8th November 2024, and the project will span from 13th November 2024 to 31st March 2025. The project's objective is to explore the factors influencing secondary heating usage among UK households without a heat pump and how the introduction of a heat pump might alter these behaviours. The project will cover a wide range of locations, including the British Oversea Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, the rest of the world, and the United Kingdom, with a total value of £64,549. This procurement was concluded through a selective method, specifically a call-off from the PS24030 - Behavioural Science Call-off Framework agreement.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in research, behavioural science, and consultancy services related to energy consumption and household behaviours. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are especially encouraged to seize such opportunities to collaborate on high-impact research projects. Companies with experience in conducting household interviews and analysing behavioural data would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts. The insights gained from this research can lead to long-term partnerships with public entities like DESNZ and contribute to policy-making and innovation in energy efficiency and sustainable living.
