Notice Information
Notice Title
Business Strategy Services Framework
Notice Description
Cadent have an ambitious programme of activities underway, aimed at building the case for hydrogen to be used in our networks and more recently in making the case for the continued use of the gas network supporting, inter alia the adoption of hybrid heating systems, growth in biomethane and a significant reduction in leakage levels to the lowest levels in the sector. While we believe hydrogen will have a key role to play in the future, for use in industry, transport and possibly in the heating of homes and businesses, the exact pathway to decarbonisation remains very uncertain. Cadent seeks to maintain a leadership position externally on the transition to net zero and have a robust position internally on the implications of different pathways on the business. The awarded suppliers will support our programme of activities with research and consultancy services.
