Summary of the contracting process

Citizen Housing Group Ltd commissioned energy-efficiency improvement works for its properties as part of Wave 3 decarbonisation funding. The scope includes installing Solshare technology in Citizen blocks, alongside wider energy-efficiency upgrades. The works are classified as building energy-efficiency and solar-panel installation works (CPV 45261215). Delivery is in the West Midlands. This is a housing decarbonisation programme, rather than a general energy supply contract: relevant businesses are those able to deliver building retrofit and solar-related works for a housing provider.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to E.ON UK Green Funding Solutions Ltd. The award is active, and the contract is also active; it was signed on 28 September 2026. The contract value is £9 million, described as potential spend rather than a guaranteed sum. The initial contract period is 24 months, with an option to extend by a further 12 months. Citizen used a direct award call-off from the Fusion21 Decarbonisation framework, without a prior competition. The stated award criterion was price. The procurement was organised as one lot, which is marked cancelled in the tender data, while the award and contract are recorded as active. One bid was recorded.

For suppliers considering comparable future work with Citizen Housing Group, this award shows demand for a combination of block-level Solshare installation and broader energy-efficiency upgrades to housing stock. A credible competitor would need to deliver both the relevant building works and the installation of Solshare technology, with the capacity to work across Citizen properties in the West Midlands. The route used was a direct call-off from the Fusion21 Decarbonisation framework, so framework eligibility and the ability to secure work through that route are commercially relevant. Price was the recorded basis of evaluation, making competitive cost delivery important. The combined scope and potential spend indicate a substantial decarbonisation programme rather than a single, narrowly defined installation.
