Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has initiated and completed a tender process titled "Direct Measurement of Landfill Methane Emissions 2" under the classification "Design and execution of research and development" (CPV: 73300000). This project aims to design a robust and cost-effective methodology to measure landfill methane emissions across various sites in the UK. Initially announced on 14th May 2024 and signed on 9th September 2024, the contract has been awarded to NPL Management Limited. The procurement process followed an open procedure, adhering to the relevant legal frameworks, with tender submissions due by 17th June 2024. The contract, worth £1,453,251, spans from 29th July 2024 to 31st March 2026.

This project presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in environmental protection, specifically those with expertise in research and development, and sustainable practices. Companies specialising in emission measurement technologies and environmental consultancy services would find this tender relevant. The awarded contract, which includes subcontracting possibilities, enables participating firms to contribute to the UK's National Inventory on CH4 emissions and meet regulatory requirements, positioning themselves favourably for future regulatory projects. As the contracting authority, Defra provides a high-profile platform for businesses to demonstrate their capabilities in addressing critical environmental challenges.

Notice Title

Direct Measurement of Landfill Methane Emissions 2

Notice Description

Direct Measurement of Landfill Methane Emissions 2

Lot Information

Lot 1

This project builds on 'WR1928: Direct Measurement of Landfill Methane Emissions' which focused on at one recently closed site understanding possible options for direct landfill emissions measurement, and understand the variation in landfill emissions, given changes in local weather and operational parameters.

The focus of the current study will be in the extension of this work to design and deliver a robust and cost-effective survey approach (and underpinning standard operating procedures) as a step towards allowing the quantification of annual site-specific landfill methane emissions (and associated sources of variability) for multiple operational, recently closed, and historically closed landfill sites, of different emission potential.

We anticipate that this project will take a similar approach to WR1928 in combining long term emission measurement (seasonal) with a series of discrete surveys to understand the survey approaches that would be necessary to provide this annual estimate (within a stated level of certainty).
This will meet the data integrity required for measured landfill CH4 emissions being reported within the UK National Inventory (and which are aligned with regulatory requirements) and will provide the basis for future regulatory work.
