## Summary

The procurement process titled "Bioenergy heat pathways to 2050 - review of evidence and assumptions" was conducted by the Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS). This project falls under the services industry category, specifically focusing on feasibility studies, advisory services, and analysis. The contract, awarded to Ecofys UK Ltd, has a total value of £136,235 and is set to commence on 3rd April 2017, lasting until 14th July 2017. The tender process was completed on 31st March 2017.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in bioenergy research, energy consultancy, and modelling tools development. Companies with expertise in assessing energy pathways and sustainable heating solutions, particularly those capable of providing innovative analytical frameworks, will find themselves well-placed to compete in this evolving sector. The focus on decarbonisation also opens doors for firms dedicated to environmental sustainability and regulatory compliance in the energy domain.

## Notice

1.1 BEIS are developing a pathway calculator to assess the ways in which the government can support the decarbonisation of heat and bioenergy is expected to play a key part. We wish to critically assess and update our assumptions around bioenergy chains and identify those we deem most important for the future of heating to 2050, what the key barriers are and what may be put in place to overcome them. From this we require a high level modelling tool to assess the costs and benefits of these key bioenergy chains which will feed into the pathway calculator. Policy colleagues will use the modelling tool to understand the implications of different scenarios around key bioenergy pathways and their role in a decarbonised heating system.
