Summary of the contracting process

Bellevue Place Education Trust sought fixed energy supply contracts for a multi-site portfolio with varied consumption profiles. The requirement was divided into electricity and natural gas. The electricity lot required fixed electricity supplied with Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGO); the gas lot required fixed natural gas. The Trust wanted reliable supply, competitive pricing, strong account management, accurate billing, proactive risk management and support for its operational and environmental objectives. Delivery is across the Trust’s sites in the UK, within the London area identified for the portfolio. Ginger Energy Limited managed the procurement on the Trust’s behalf. This is a purchase of energy commodities rather than consultancy, installation, construction or energy-efficiency works.

The procurement is complete and was run as an above-threshold open procedure, with an electronic auction. It had two lots: electricity, estimated at £2,960,400 gross (£2,467,000 excluding VAT), and gas, estimated at £1,839,600 gross (£1,533,000 excluding VAT). The overall estimate was £4,800,000 gross (£4,000,000 excluding VAT). The tender deadline was 31 July 2026 at 4pm, enquiries closed on 24 July and the award period ended on 10 August. SEFE Energy was selected for the gas lot, awarded on 3 September 2026 at £1,839,600 gross (£1,533,000 excluding VAT). Its contract runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, with an extension option to 31 August 2030. The gas award’s standstill period ends on 14 September 2026. Price carried 40% of evaluation, with service and operations and product and operational processes each carrying 30%.

This procurement indicates recurring demand from an education trust for a regulated energy supplier able to manage fixed electricity and gas contracts across multiple sites. Credible competitors will need Ofgem registration and a valid GB Supply Licence, together with the financial standing and technical capability to maintain continuity of supply. The requirement favours suppliers with robust billing and account-management systems, transparent auditable charges, scalable processes and reliable customer service. Experience of varied consumption profiles, fixed-price risk management, market volatility and regulatory change would strengthen a future response. For electricity, REGO-backed supply and a demonstrable sustainability approach are relevant. Suppliers should also be able to accommodate additional sites and show how their operational arrangements deliver dependable service and value for money.
