Notice Title

project_25787 - Decarbonisation Programme - project_25787 - Decarbonisation Programme - Project CoPPA

Notice Description

Network Rail (NR) operates, maintains and develops Britain's rail tracks, signaling, bridges, tunnels, level crossings and many key stations. As a result, NR is one of the largest purchasers of electricity in the United Kingdom (UK) with a total consumption of c.4.5TWh per annum (traction 4.1 TWh and non-traction 0.45TWh). Her Majesty's Government has made legal commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050. Network Rail as a government owned enterprise is committed to support the achievement of this objective. NR aims to decarbonise its non-traction electricity consumption by directly purchasing renewable energy from specific renewable energy (wind and/or solar) projects thus supporting the development of additional renewable energy generation in Great Britain. NR is seeking to secure a corporate Power Purchase Agreement with a renewable energy generator for 45GWh-90GWh per annum for non-traction consumption. Total contract value is circa PS40m-PS80m over 15 years.
