UK13 - Dynamic Market Intention Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Orion Education established a dynamic market for the physical supply of electricity to all its authority sites, including associated invoicing and query-management services. This is a goods procurement for electricity and electricity supplies. Delivery covers Orion Education’s sites across the United Kingdom. The procurement is managed by Orion Education, with Zenergi Limited acting as the utility procurement adviser. The requirement is intended to support the authority’s electricity purchasing needs through admitted suppliers and subsequent competitive selections. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are electricity suppliers able to provide physical power to multiple public-sector sites and handle the related billing, account administration and customer queries. The requirement concerns supply and supporting commercial processes rather than construction, installation or energy-efficiency works.

The process has reached the award stage: the dynamic market was established on 24 July 2026, with an amendment recorded on 28 July 2026. The award is active and admitted nine suppliers: British Gas Trading Limited, Drax Energy Solutions Limited, Npower Commercial Gas Limited, SSE Energy Supply Limited, TEM Energy Limited, TotalEnergies Gas and Power Limited, YÜ Energy Retail Limited, Brook Green Supply Limited and Conrad Energy Group Limited. It used an open procedure under the Procurement Act 2023, specifically a dynamic market. There is one active lot covering the electricity requirement. No award value, contract value, or individual supplier allocation is published. The market is intended to remain in place from 24 July 2026 for an indefinite period, with competitive selections among admitted suppliers for subsequent requirements.

This procurement demonstrates recurring public-sector demand for a multi-site electricity supply arrangement with structured supplier admission and competition. A credible competitor would need to operate as an electricity supplier, provide physical electricity across the United Kingdom, and manage the operational workload generated by multiple authority sites. Relevant capability includes accurate invoicing, dependable query management, account administration and the systems needed to support competitive selection exercises under a dynamic market. The admitted supplier group includes both large energy companies and SMEs, showing that participation is not limited to one organisational scale. Suppliers considering future opportunities with Orion Education should be able to evidence reliable supply operations, public-sector account management and the capacity to serve several sites while maintaining consistent billing and customer support.
