Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by East Lindsey District Council focuses on the installation of a solar farm at The Hub in Horncastle, United Kingdom, an effort to enhance renewable power capabilities. With the procurement process being managed by Public Sector Partnership Services Ltd as the procuring entity, the solar panel installation falls under the electrical installation work category. The procurement method employed is 'open', specifically a 'below threshold - open competition', and the procurement stage has now reached the award phase. The contract was awarded on 16th January 2026 to EVOENERGY LIMITED, with the contract period scheduled from 19th February 2026 to 1st June 2026. The buying organization, East Lindsey District Council, and the award of this contract emphasize the continual interest in sustainable energy solutions.

This tender represents a significant growth opportunity for businesses involved in solar energy solutions, especially SMEs given the nature of the competition and procurement method. Companies that provide electrical installation services, particularly those specialising in solar PV or similar renewable energy projects, are well-positioned to engage in such tenders. The focus on sustainable energy also aligns with current market trends towards renewable sources, providing companies with a platform for innovation and collaboration and the potential to expand their reach in the public sector. The strategic location within the United Kingdom and the significant contract value further increase the attractiveness of participating in such government-driven projects.
