## Summary

The Devon County Council has initiated a tender process for the procurement of carbon offsets under the title CP2476-24a Carbon Offsets. This procurement falls under the services category with a total contract value of £150,627. The procurement method is an open procedure (below threshold), and the deadline for tender submissions is March 21, 2024. The contract period is set to start from April 1, 2024, and end on March 31, 2025. The Council is seeking UK-based certified offsets from nature-based solutions to support its carbon neutrality target by 2030.

This tender opportunity presented by Devon County Council for carbon offset procurement provides a chance for businesses involved in nature-based solutions, such as woodland creation or peatland restoration, to participate and contribute to environmental sustainability initiatives. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialize in carbon offsetting services are particularly well-suited to compete in this tender process. By engaging in this procurement, businesses can align with the Council's strategy towards achieving full carbon neutrality by 2030.

## Notice

DCC has committed to offsetting an increasing proportion of its carbon emissions each year to 2030 from when it expects to achieve full carbon neutrality. This net zero by 2030 target is a corporate priority in the Council's Strategy. International carbon offsets are available on the market but this is not politcally acceptable and so we are looking for UK-based certified offsets from nautre-based solutions i.e. woodland creation or peatland restoration.
