## Summary

The Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking a provider for the "18-112 Community Energy Switching Scheme" through an open tender process. This initiative aims to secure a local energy supply offer, aiming to reduce gas and electricity bills for residents in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom. The tender was published on 17 April 2019, with responses due by 22 May 2019. The contract period is set to commence on 1 December 2019 and is expected to run until 30 November 2021, providing services under the industry category of energy supply.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in energy services, particularly those able to offer competitive local energy supply solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this tender advantageous, as the project encourages participation from smaller firms, in an effort to provide fairer treatment and customer service for residents. Companies that can deliver innovative energy solutions and demonstrate strong customer service capabilities will be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract with the Council.

## Notice

The Council is looking for a Local energy supply offer, via a Concession Contract with an energy Supplier, to help reduce gas and electricity bills for residents and provide them with a greater level of customer service and fairer treatment to that which they may be receiving from their existing Supplier. The Local Energy Offer will be available to all residents across the Borough and the Council will also commit to the transfer of all void housing stock properties to be automatically switched to the relevant tariff within the offer as and when they become empty. It will also generate an income for the Council in the form of referral fees and meter credit.
