## Summary

The Energy Systems Catapult Limited is initiating a procurement process for "Modelling Support" to assist in the Upgrade Analysis Project, part of the Smart Systems and Heat programme aimed at developing low carbon heating solutions in the UK. This tender, classified under energy-efficiency consultancy services, is currently in the Award stage, with a total contract value of £65,000. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, and the contract is set to commence on 12th June 2017, lasting until 31st December 2017. Interested suppliers were invited to register by 28th April 2017, and the work will predominantly take place at their offices in Birmingham (B4 6BS).

This opportunity offers significant potential for businesses specialising in low carbon technologies, modelling services, and environmental consultancy, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Companies with expertise in innovative heating systems such as hydrogen boilers and ground source heat pumps, as well as those capable of enhancing model capabilities from prior projects, would be well-suited to compete. Engaging in this tender can help businesses expand their footprint within the sustainable energy sector, leveraging the growing demand for environmentally friendly solutions.

## Notice

The Energy Systems Catapult has assumed responsibility for the delivery of the Energy Technologies Institute's (ETI) Smart Systems and Heat programme which aims to create future-proof and economic local heating solutions for the UK. As part of this Programme, the Upgrade Analysis Project will seek to take the learning other Smart Systems and Heat Projects to create concept plans for low carbon pathways for consumer households, provide a statistical analysis of how these pathways apply to the UK as a whole and create new, novel heat storage concepts. The ESC are seeking modelling support in the Upgrade Analysis Project by sourcing a supplier with expertise in low carbon technologies to expand the capability of the model produced in phase 1 of the Integrated Electric Heat Project. The exact scope of this modelling is to be defined but could include new heating systems (eg. Hydrogen boilers, Ground Source Heat Pumps), other low carbon technologies (eg. Solar PV), new control systems and additional heating components (eg. advanced boiler control, new radiators). Additional information: Please register your interest by following the instructions in the RFP.
