Summary of the contracting process

Education Learning Trust established a dynamic market for the physical supply of electricity and gas to all of its sites across the United Kingdom. The requirement includes associated invoicing and query-management services, so relevant suppliers need to support both energy supply and customer administration. The procurement is divided into two areas: electricity supply and gas supply. Electricity covers mains electricity and electricity supplies; gas covers mains and natural gas. The buyer is Education Learning Trust, with Zenergi Limited acting as the utility procurement adviser. This is a goods procurement centred on supplying energy to the Trust’s sites, rather than an installation, construction or energy-efficiency works contract.

The procurement has reached the award stage, with active awards made on 15 September 2026. It used an open procedure to establish a dynamic market under the Procurement Act 2023. The market began on 14 September 2026 and operates as a purchasing mechanism through which admitted suppliers can be selected competitively. Electricity was awarded to British Gas Trading, Conrad Energy Group, GETVOLTER, Npower Commercial Gas, Shell Energy UK, SSE Energy Supply, TotalEnergies Gas and Power, YÜ Energy Retail and Ecotricity. Gas was awarded to Crown Gas and Power, SEFE Energy, Shell Energy UK, SSE Energy Supply, TotalEnergies Gas and Power and YÜ Energy Retail. No monetary values or contract end dates are stated.

This procurement shows that the Trust requires suppliers capable of physically delivering electricity or gas across a multi-site education estate, while also providing accurate invoicing and responsive handling of customer queries. The appointed supplier group includes both large energy companies and SMEs, indicating that credible participation can come from businesses with different operating scales, provided they can meet the market’s supply and service requirements. Electricity specialists would need dependable power-supply arrangements and billing capability; gas specialists would need equivalent natural-gas supply and account-management capability. Businesses preparing for a future requirement from this buyer should demonstrate operational resilience, energy-market expertise, reliable customer administration and the capacity to manage multiple sites and accounts.
