Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero is planning the "Land-Climate Research Programme" procurement process, focusing on research services related to climate mitigation options. This initiative aims to understand better the potential for climate mitigation using land, considering specific net zero targets and policy commitments in domains like energy production, agriculture, and biodiversity. The process is currently in the planning stage, with a future Supplier Event scheduled for July 6th, 2023, to support the proposed invitation to tender.

Businesses involved in research services for climate change, land use, and environmental sustainability are well-suited to compete in the upcoming "Land-Climate Research Programme" tender held by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero. This opportunity presents a chance for businesses to contribute towards net zero targets and sustainability goals. Specifically, suppliers with expertise in research and development, environmental consulting, and climate change mitigation strategies are encouraged to engage in this procurement process to align with the project's objective of developing targeted interventions for maximum environmental impact.

Notice Title

Land-Climate Research Programme

Notice Description

This research programme aims to develop a deeper, more granular understanding of the potential for climate mitigation options, considering specific net zero targets and top-down assumptions of the contribution of land to climate change mitigation. Building on previous work, the project will synthesis evidence and analysis to identify the contributions of different land use scenarios to Net Zero targets, taking account of current and future policy commitments spanning but limited to: climate mitigation, energy production, agriculture, biodiversity and the natural environment. It will consider the risks, co-benefits and trade-offs across a variety of spatial scales so that a holistic approach can be taken and targeted interventions can be designed with maximum impact.

Lot Information

Lot 1

This research programme aims to build upon previous research to develop a deeper, more granular understanding of the potential for climate mitigation options in land use and agriculture, considering specific net zero targets and top-down assumptions. Using the updated evidence base, the project will aim to provide an updated assessment of the mitigation potential of land-based options, their resilience to climate change, and trade-offs with environmental variables and biodiversity. The work will deliver a set of plausible scenarios which will inform decisions around the setting of Carbon Budget 7 and future policies. This work builds on a scoping study which ran from July 2022 to March 2023 to establish the current state of evidence in this area, and gaps which need to be filled to deliver comprehensive analysis of the contribution land can make to meeting net-zero. The research will be broad ranging and include, for example, developing more spatially detailed information on land use options for climate mitigation across England and the Devolved Administrations (DAs) alongside consideration of other land use pressures. The project will feed into and complement the longer-term UKRI Land Use for Net Zero research call.
