## Summary

The University of East Anglia, located in Norwich, is conducting a procurement process titled “Supply of Mains Gas and Supply and Export of Electricity.” This tender, scheduled for a 36-month contract beginning in April 2021 for electricity and October 2021 for gas, is classified under the CPV category of petroleum products, fuel, electricity, and other sources of energy. The award has already been complete, with two contracts awarded to SmartestEnergy and Corona Energy Ltd for a total value of £3,400,000. The tender period concluded on 19 February 2021, and the active contracts will run until 30 September 2024.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for energy suppliers, particularly those holding a valid Ofgem supply licence for electricity and gas. Businesses that specialise in utility provision or management, particularly those experienced in handling "spill" export contracts, would be well-suited to compete in future related tenders. The substantial value and duration of these contracts indicate a stable opportunity for growth in the energy sector, especially within the East of England region.

## Notice

University of East Anglia is seeking to appoint suppliers of HH electricity (Lot 1) and mains gas (Lot 2) for a 36 month contact commencing April 2021 for power and October 2021 for gas. Bidders to Lot 1 (electricity) must also demonstrate ability to manage a "spill" export contract. This tender is being run by Inspired Energy plc on behalf of the University and is open to holders of a valid Ofgem supply licence for the relevant utility only.
