Summary of the contracting process

Lee Chapel Multi Academy Trust established a dynamic market for the physical supply of electricity to all of its sites, including associated invoicing and query-management services. This is a goods procurement covering electricity and electricity supplies (CPV 09310000 and 31682000). The buyer is Lee Chapel Multi Academy Trust, with Zenergi Limited acting as utility procurement adviser and procuring entity. Delivery is required across the Trust’s sites in the United Kingdom. The arrangement is designed to support later competitive selections among admitted electricity suppliers, rather than procure a single one-off supply contract. It is therefore relevant to licensed or otherwise qualified energy suppliers able to provide physical electricity supply together with accurate billing and customer query handling for a multi-site education organisation.

The procurement has reached the award stage: the dynamic market was established on 9 July 2026 and is recorded as active, with modifications published through 19 September 2026. It uses an open procedure and a dynamic market purchasing method under the Procurement Act 2023. There is one lot, covering the Trust’s electricity requirement. The arrangement has no stated monetary value and is recorded with an open-ended duration. Eleven suppliers were admitted: Good Energy Ltd, Npower Commercial Gas Limited, SSE Energy Supply Limited, TotalEnergies Gas and Power Limited, YÜ Energy Retail Limited, Crown Gas and Power Limited, British Gas Trading Limited, Conrad Energy Group Limited, Drax Energy Solutions Limited, Ecotricity Limited and Brook Green Supply Limited. Electronic submission is permitted, and later competitions are conducted among admitted suppliers.

This procurement demonstrates established demand from a multi-academy trust for UK-wide electricity supply supported by operational account management. A credible competitor for future selections would need to deliver physical electricity reliably across multiple education sites, manage consolidated or site-level invoicing accurately, and provide responsive handling of billing and service queries. The admitted supplier field shows that the buyer is willing to use established energy companies, including both large suppliers and an SME, with experience in public-sector or multi-site energy provision. Suppliers should also be able to participate in a dynamic market and respond to competitive selections under its rules. Relevant commercial strengths include dependable supply arrangements, robust billing systems, customer-service capacity and the organisational scale to support a distributed education estate.
