Summary of the contracting process

Tees Valley Combined Authority procured a renewable energy system for Teesside International Airport, supporting the airport’s journey towards net zero and covering its current and future energy use. The requirement combines a lease of identified airport land with a power purchase agreement for renewable electricity generated on site. The appointed provider is responsible for designing and constructing the system, then operating and maintaining it and supplying the airport with the renewable energy produced. The system is intended to expand as airport demand increases through future land development. The work is primarily a renewable energy service with associated construction, electrical equipment maintenance and operation. Delivery is at Teesside International Airport, near Darlington, using land unsuitable for traditional construction projects.

The procurement has reached the award stage. Geo Green Power Limited was selected for the single lot at an awarded value of £25,000,000 excluding VAT (£30,000,000 including VAT). The award was dated 31 July 2026, with the standstill period ending on 12 August 2026. The award contract period is 5 October 2026 to 4 October 2051. It followed an open competitive flexible procedure with participation, initial tenders and negotiation leading to a final presentation. Eleven bids were received, with one reaching the final stage. Evaluation weighted the project proposal at 70%, social value at 20% and the written quality proposal at 10%. The procurement was above threshold and suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This award demonstrates substantial, long-term demand from Teesside International Airport for an integrated renewable energy partner rather than a one-off installation contractor. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to finance, design and construct an on-site generation system, secure or manage the necessary land arrangement, and operate and maintain electrical equipment throughout a long service period. It would also need to guarantee a dependable renewable electricity supply through a power purchase agreement and show how capacity can increase with airport demand and development. Relevant strengths include renewable generation delivery, construction management, asset operation, electrical maintenance, energy contracting, commercial and legal capability for PPAs, and a clear approach to social value. The requirement was open to SMEs, indicating that capable specialist businesses may compete, potentially with delivery partners.
