## Notice

Taking the lead from the City's Climate Change Citizen Assembly, Oxford City Council (The Council) will be adopting a challenging net zero target. One of the projects integral to the net zero target is Energy Superhub Oxford (ESO), an Innovate UK grant funded project, one outcome of which is to provide the energy infrastructure to create the largest public EV charging Superhub in the UK. The Council is working in conjunction with Pivot Power, a key partner on the ESO Project and the Independent Distribution Network Operator (IDNO) to the Superhub site. To support this programme of electrification the Council is seeking quotations for the supply of a Midel Transformer, LV Switchboard and MID Meters.
