Notice Title

Biomass Project at Lyth Arts Centre

Notice Description

LAC would like to install a Biomass boiler(s) of an appropriate size for the property, and with sufficient capacity to heat both the Main Building and the Accommodation.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Lyth Arts Centre (LAC) is the UK's most northerly mainland multi-arts centre. Every year we host a 10 month programme of music, theatre, dance and visual arts, usually from March to December. We also host artists residencies where artists stay at LAC for a prolonged period of time and create new work. LAC is sited over two individual buildings; the Arts Centre (referred to in this document as 'Main Building') and the Accommodation block. In 2018, Resource Efficient Scotland conducted an energy consumption review and identified Biomass as a financially and economically sustainable heating alternative to the current system of expensive and inefficient electric storage heaters, which account for around 75% of the organsiations energy consumption. Subsequently, LAC has successfully received funding from Highland LEADER to install a biomass boiler and wet radiator system, to the value of 68,000 GBP (81,600 GBP including VAT). This document forms the specification for the works to be carried out. The contractor is ultimately responsible for designing and installing a working system that provides adequate heat into the property. Since the funding is coming from public sources, LAC will not be eligible for the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI). It is considered essential that site visits are undertaken to adequately respond to this tender.
