Summary of the contracting process

Yate Town Council is procuring mains gas and electricity supplies for its council properties in Yate and South Gloucestershire. The requirement covers the supply of both utilities, with suppliers asked to provide property-specific quotations using the council’s consumption and supply information. The council wants energy certified as 100% from traceable renewable sources, with investment in expanding renewable capacity prioritised. Suppliers must disclose the fuel mix used to generate the energy supplied, including coal, gas, nuclear and renewable sources. The requirement also seeks information about available service models, such as procurement-only or fully managed services, together with services for solar energy generation and the Smart Export Guarantee. This is a goods procurement for utility supply.

The process has reached tender: Yate Town Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is a single lot with an estimated value of £175,806 excluding VAT, or £197,073.45 including VAT. The contract is intended to run from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030. Tenders must be submitted by email to tenders@yatetowncouncil.gov.uk by 12 noon on 21 August 2026, using the completed Quote Template and Form of Tender. Evaluation will consider best value for money, the renewable fuel mix or renewable energy certification, and the services offered. Tenders are due to be reviewed within seven days after the deadline, with formal award planned for the Environment and Community Committee meeting on 22 September 2026.

This opportunity suits energy suppliers able to provide mains gas and electricity to public-sector properties, manage multiple supply points and produce clear, property-level quotations. Strong candidates will be able to certify renewable energy from traceable sources and explain the certification used, fuel-generation mix and investment in renewable capacity. Suppliers offering green gas, including transparent information about any offsetting and the percentage of green gas supplied, may also be relevant. Businesses unable to provide fully certified renewable supply can still be considered if they can evidence their energy sourcing, explain any departure from the council’s requirements and show credible steps towards zero-carbon or net-zero energy production. The council also seeks suppliers with procurement-only or fully managed service models, solar generation expertise and Smart Export Guarantee support.

Notice Title

Yate Town Council Supply of Gas and Electric to Town Council Properties

Notice Description

Yate Town Council reaches the end of an agreement with its current gas and electric provider in March 2027 and is releasing an opportunity to tender for providers of these utilities for a new 3-year agreement. The Council made a Climate Emergency Declaration in February 2020, as part of this commitment, the council require their energy supply to be certified as 100% from traceable renewable sources where investment in developing renewable capacity is prioritised, and all energy is certified with traceable certification. We recognise that some organisations are working towards green gas and currently operate by offsetting production. Such supplies will be considered but will be expected to provide information about the percentage of the gas supplied is green gas, and their plans for investing in increasing green gas innovation. Yate Town Council require suppliers to disclose the mix of fuels (coal, gas, nuclear, renewable, and other) used to generate the energy supplied.
