This tender falls under the goods industry category and was conducted using an open, competitive flexible procedure. Managed by Zenergi Limited as the procuring entity, the contract was awarded to SSE Energy Supply Limited. The overarching procurement stage is complete, with the award taking effect from 1st October 2026, continuing until 30th September 2028.
