Summary of the contracting process

The Mining Remediation Authority commissioned development feasibility services to progress potential solar photovoltaic schemes. The work supports its plan to expand its solar installation portfolio and build a pipeline of projects. It covers detailed development work to establish design and construction costs, forecast energy generation and associated savings, and the costs of enabling works, site infrastructure and the solar systems themselves. The purpose is to give the Authority a sound basis for investment decisions and demonstrate value for money before schemes proceed. The work spans locations across England, Scotland and Wales.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to GW POWER-SAFE LIMITED. The contract was signed on 18 August 2026 and runs from 24 August 2026 to 23 August 2028. Its value is £167,456 excluding VAT (£200,947.20 including VAT). The process was a below-threshold procurement; the stated method details do not identify a specific procedure. It was structured as a single lot. The available outcome records the supplier and contract, but do not set out evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements.

This requirement shows the kind of specialist capability the Mining Remediation Authority uses to develop solar projects: combining solar photovoltaic design and construction costing with assessment of site-enabling works and infrastructure. A credible competitor for similar work would need to produce reliable, detailed cost estimates alongside forecasts of energy generation and savings, and turn those findings into evidence that supports investment decisions and value-for-money assessments. The scope spans project development rather than installation alone, so relevant experience would include assessing the full package of works and costs needed to progress schemes towards delivery. The procurement was handled below threshold and awarded as a single lot, making an ability to provide this integrated feasibility support a relevant commercial strength for suppliers tracking the Authority’s solar development needs.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Solar PV Development Feasibility

Notice Description

The Mining Remediation Authority is seeking to expand its portfolio of solar energy installations and develop a pipeline of schemes to be delivered over the next few years. To support informed decision making, there is a need for detailed development work that provides a full understanding of design and construction costs, as well as the forecast energy generation and associated savings. This includes comprehensive costing of all enabling works, site infrastructure requirements, and the solar PV systems themselves. Dedicated support is therefore required to progress these schemes to a stage where accurate investment decisions can be made and value for money can be demonstrated.
