## Summary

Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council procured electricity supply and ancillary services for every supply point in its electricity portfolio. This covers the Council’s operational estate, schools and academies, and other relevant third parties. The requirement is for energy supply as a goods procurement, with delivery across Rotherham and the wider Yorkshire and the Humber area. The procurement sits within the public-sector electricity and related-services market, covering petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other energy sources (CPV 09000000). The appointed supplier is responsible for supplying electricity across the portfolio through the Council’s chosen public-sector purchasing route.

The procurement has been completed and awarded to Npower Commercial Gas Limited, trading as nPower Business Solutions and part of the E.ON Group. The award was made on 17 September 2026 for £38,850,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2031. The Council used a selective procurement method, making a call-off from the YPO Electricity and Ancillary Services Framework, reference 1100. The tender submission deadline was 17 August 2026 at 12:00. The award is recorded as active, and the selected supplier is Npower Commercial Gas Limited.

This outcome indicates substantial, multi-site public-sector demand for a supplier able to manage electricity provision across a Council estate, schools and academies, and third-party sites. A credible future competitor would need the operational scale to serve numerous supply points, maintain reliable supply arrangements, and coordinate billing, account management and associated services across public-sector customers. Experience of supplying councils, educational establishments and other public bodies would be directly relevant. Suppliers would also need to work effectively through an established public-sector framework or equivalent compliant purchasing route, and demonstrate the commercial capacity to manage a large, long-term electricity portfolio in the Yorkshire and the Humber market. The requirement shows that ancillary services alongside core electricity supply are part of the expected offer.
