Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Bromley procured the supply of electricity for its council operations. The requirement was for electricity supplied to the council through a broker using the Countess of Chester Hospital’s Supply of Electricity Framework (FO21). This is a goods contract for electricity, rather than an installation, construction or energy-efficiency service. Delivery is associated with Bromley in London. The buying organisation is the London Borough of Bromley, a local authority. The selected supplier is EDF Energy, a large electricity provider. The framework route means the requirement was handled through an established electricity-supply arrangement rather than as a standalone open-market purchase by the council.

The procurement is complete and has resulted in an active award and contract. The London Borough of Bromley used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, relying on the Countess of Chester Hospital’s FO21 electricity framework, which is described as single-supplier. One bid was recorded. EDF Energy was awarded the electricity supply contract, with a value of £4,136,000. The contract was signed on 1 October 2025 and is recorded as active. The award was evaluated on price. The procurement was treated as outside the scope of the relevant directive and covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The award relates to the electricity-supply requirement for the council.

For a supplier that did not win, this procurement demonstrates substantial, recurring public-sector demand for the straightforward supply of electricity to a London local authority. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to provide electricity at council scale, offer commercially competitive pricing, and demonstrate the operational capacity to serve the buyer reliably. It would also need to understand how public-sector framework purchasing works and be able to supply through, or secure access to, an appropriate compliant framework route. The use of a single-supplier framework shows that framework availability and route-to-market planning can determine whether an electricity provider can compete, alongside its ability to deliver the underlying commodity.
