Summary of the contracting process

Fife Council, a regional authority in the United Kingdom, is in the planning stage of a procurement process for a Combined Heat & Power (CHP) system. The tender titled "Combined Heat & Power - Supply, Install, Commission and Maintain" involves the replacement of the existing CHP engine at the Lochhead Landfill Site Anaerobic Digestion Plant. This project, classified under landfill-gas electricity generating plant construction work, has an estimated value of £500,000. The council is seeking specialists to supply, install, commission, and maintain a new system that may vary in capacity to better align with the plant's biogas production, which fluctuates seasonally. Potential suppliers can anticipate the future notice date to be around 1st October 2024.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in CHP systems, particularly those with expertise in biogas utilisation and economic efficiency solutions. Companies involved in energy efficiency or regional energy service sectors would be well-suited to compete, as they can leverage their capabilities to propose innovative configurations and solutions that maximise biogas use and enhance economic benefits for Fife Council. Specialists in engineering, installation, and maintenance of energy systems can find promising business expansion potential through this procurement process.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Fife Council is looking to engage with potential Combined Heat & Power (CHP) specialists to Supply, Install, commission and maintain a new CHP system at Lochhead Landfill Site Anaerobic Digestion Plant. The existing CHP engine is at the end of it's operational life and we are looking to replace it with a new engine. The existing engine is rated at 1100kW and may be oversized for the current gas supply. Alternative capacities / configurations will be considered. The existing CHP engine runs on biogas consisting of approximately 50-60% methane produced from the fermenters in the AD Plant. Gas production varies from approximately 62,000m3 per week in peak summer months to approximately 28,000m3 per week in winter. There is significant variation in daily gas production. The council are looking into means of improving the winter gas production. Prospective suppliers may be asked to propose solutions that maximise the utilisation of the biogas and maximise the economic benefit to the council.
