The Department for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy is conducting a procurement process to appoint contractors for the development of hydrogen ancillary system components and alarms under the title "Contractors for the development of hydrogen ancillary system components and alarms (Hy4Heat WP4b)". This procurement falls within the oil and gas industry and is being carried out using an open procedure method. The tender period concluded on 9 April 2020, with a total contract value of £720,000, which will remain active until 31 March 2021. The work is centred in the United Kingdom, with delivery extending to British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and globally.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the engineering and energy sectors, particularly those specialising in hydrogen technology, valve manufacturing, and safety systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to participate, as the contracting authority aims to develop solutions comparable in cost to current natural gas components. Companies that can provide innovative solutions for hydrogen-compatible components and alarms stand to gain from this initiative, supporting the transition towards a sustainable energy future.
