## Summary

The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy has awarded a contract to Baringa Partners LLP for the research project titled "Quantifying Supply Chain Constraints to De-Risk the Delivery of Bess Renewable Deployment Ambitions." The research aims to assess the supply-chain requirements for deploying wind and solar capacity, identifying bottlenecks and quantifying potential impacts. This selective procurement process involved call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The contract period runs from February 1, 2023, to June 30, 2023, with a total value of £175,000 GBP.

This tender opportunity is particularly suited for businesses involved in research and market analysis services. The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy has engaged in this initiative to support the UK's renewable deployment ambitions and transition to a decarbonised power sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to participate in this opportunity, which offers a chance to contribute to national energy objectives and gain valuable insights into supply-chain dynamics within the renewable energy industry.

## Notice

***** THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION ***** This procurement is being concluded following a mini competition under the Crown Commercial Services -Research and Insights DPS (RM6126) Brief Description of Requirement This research is intended to provide a holistic assessment of the supply-chain requirements of deploying wind and solar capacity in line with Government ambitions. This should include fixed bottom and floating offshore wind, onshore wind, ground-mounted grid-scale solar as well as rooftop solar. Outputs of this research should quantify supply-chain requirements of meeting our renewable ambitions, identify likely bottlenecks and quantify the potential impact on deployment. In assessing the potential impact on deployment, we envisage that the research would aim to quantify the maximum capacity per annum supply chain companies in the UK could deliver. This should be supplemented with an assessment of these companies to leverage the global supply-chain's ability to support UK deployment and the risks posed by relying on global supply chains. Given the complexity of global supply-chains we would expect this to be assessed qualitatively. This would then inform analysis on the UK wind and solar deployment trajectories supply-chains could support, with confidence levels or scenarios to reflect uncertainty. By understanding the supply-chain requirements and risks, BEIS can ensure that these challenges are identified early, and the right policies can be put in place to de-risk delivery. Supporting the Government's ambitions for renewable deployment and the transition towards a fully decarbonised power sector.
