This initiative is part of BEIS's £1 billion Net Zero Innovation Portfolio (NZIP), aimed at facilitating the commercialisation of clean energy technologies essential for achieving the UK's net zero targets by 2050. The tender is at the active stage with a submission deadline set for 14:00 on 22nd February 2022. Successful projects will begin by 1st May 2022, and must be completed by 31st March 2025. The focus is on innovative methodologies for high-density heat pump deployment across the United Kingdom. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in renewable energy solutions, specifically those with expertise in heat pump technologies, electrical engineering installations, and related research and development services. Companies classified as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and those operating in the voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) sectors are encouraged to participate. With a budget of up to £9 million allocated for this initiative, there is potential for various projects to receive funding, thereby fostering economic growth in line with government objectives and enhancing collaborative efforts within the clean energy sector. ## Notice Programme overview Heat Pump Ready forms part of BEIS's PS1 billion Net Zero Innovation Portfolio (NZIP), which aims to accelerate the commercialisation of innovative clean energy technologies and processes through the 2020s and 2030s. As a key solution for decarbonising homes, heat pumps will be critical for meeting the UK's legally binding commitment to achieve net zero by 2050 - and delivering the Prime Minister's 10 Point Plan. Heat Pump Ready will support the development of innovative solutions across the heat pump sector. Heat Pump Ready will be delivered through 3 streams: Stream 1: This opportunity, detailed below. Stream 2: A grants programme supporting innovation in tools and technologies to overcome barriers to heat pump deployment. Stream 3: A contract to provide support, evaluation, knowledge sharing and dissemination services across the Heat Pump Ready Programme. Stream 1 - This opportunity Through a pre-commercial procurement Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI) BEIS is looking to fund the development of innovative methodologies and solutions for the co-ordinated deployment of heat pumps at a high density within a given location. SBRI is a well-established pre-commercial procurement route to connect public sector challenges with innovative ideas from industry, supporting companies to generate economic growth and enabling improvement in achieving government objectives. BEIS is looking to conduct this SBRI under two phases: Phase 1 - feasibility of solution, and Phase 2 - solution demonstration, with a down select between phases. With the budget allocated, the initial expectation is that up to approximately 15 projects will be funded for Phase 1 with an expectation that at least 3 projects will continue to Phase 2. In Phase 1 projects will have up to 6 months to develop the feasibility of their methodology, with projects which progress to Phase 2 having up to 30 months to trial their developed methodology for high density heat pump deployment within a given location. Successful bidders in this Stream will be required to take part in Stream 3 activities, focused on sharing the learnings between the SBRI funded projects.
