Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Energy Security & Net Zero commissioned specialist standards services to amend and review PAS 63100, the Publicly Available Specification for installing domestic battery energy storage systems, or home batteries. The work covers the British Standards Institution’s established process for reviewing and updating the specification, including stakeholder feedback on the proposed amendments. An industry workshop will consider the scope of the review and may examine whether plug-in batteries should be incorporated into the revised standard, although they are not currently within its scope. The work is for the UK, with the department based at Whitehall in London.

The procurement is complete and was awarded by direct award to BSI Standards Ltd because it owns the copyright and intellectual property rights in PAS standards and is the UK National Standards Body for their review and updating. The award date was 28 July 2026. The awarded value is £219,916.75 excluding VAT, or £263,900.10 including VAT. The contract period is 10 August 2026 to 4 August 2028, with an option to extend by up to 12 months to allow completion of the PAS amendment and revision process; the maximum end date is 3 August 2029. It was a single-lot services procurement, evaluated through the direct-award route on exclusive intellectual property rights and technical reasons.

This requirement indicates demand for specialist standards-development capability in domestic battery energy storage and home energy technology. A credible future supplier would need a strong understanding of battery installation and safety requirements, experience reviewing or amending technical specifications, and the ability to manage a formal standards revision process. The work also calls for effective consultation with industry stakeholders, including organising and using workshop feedback to refine proposed amendments. Relevant organisations are likely to include standards bodies, technical institutions and specialist energy-sector advisers with demonstrable intellectual property, drafting, review and stakeholder-engagement capability. Suppliers would also need to understand how national standards are maintained and how technical changes can be assessed for inclusion in a published specification.
