## Summary

The procurement process pertains to the "Provision of Waste Heat Recovery System utilising an Organic Rankine Cycle System", issued by Saint-Gobain Limited, engaged in the industrial sector and based in Yorkshire and the Humber, England. The tender, which was opened on 12th March 2018, has a total contract value of £6,000,000 and was intended for delivery by July 2019 with an operation commencement date of October 2019. However, the status of the tender was cancelled on 29th June 2018, highlighting a significant halt in the procurement stage previously set to conclude in May 2018.

This tender presents a notable opportunity for companies specialising in heat recovery systems, construction works for power and heating plants, and heating-system design services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in energy efficiency technologies would be especially well-suited to participate should the procurement be re-initiated. The focus on a Knowledge Transfer Programme for SMEs in the Leeds City Region indicates a supportive environment for local businesses to engage in collaborative projects, thereby facilitating potential growth and innovation in the sector.

## Notice

The supplier must provide and install a waste heat recovery system consisting of an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system that is capable of reducing our annual grid electricity requirement by at least 12.5 GWh and reduce annual Greenhouse Gas emissions by 4,390 tonnes. We expect to be able to issue a contract to the successful tenderer in July 2018 and place an order for the ORC system on the 23rd July 2018. We require that the ORC system is delivered to our site in July 2019 and that the system is operational from October 2019 onwards. Further testing and optimising will run through to February 2020 but we do expect that the system will function from October 2019 onwards. The supplier must work alongside two other suppliers that we will procure under separate arrangements. The first partner supplier will test the ORC system and provide recommendations on how it can be optimised. This partner will help deliver an optimal solution and track any practical problems incurred in the process. They will install sensors to record the process variables enabling extensive monitoring of the waste heat recovery system during operation. This partner will aim to to enable the ORC system to exceed the manufacturer's specification (e.g. for flow rates and temperatures in the heat exchangers, turbine performance maps) and stretch the performance and results gained through application of cutting-edge expertise. The second partner that we will procure will design and deliver a Knowledge Transfer Programme (KTP) for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Leeds City Region (LCR). The purpose of this work is to share the knowledge gained from the ORC installation and operation with small heat-intensive businesses. The KTP will deliver at least 12 hours of eligible support to each of a minimum of 20 SMEs within LCR. We expect that the supplier appointed to provide and install an ORC system works closely with the partner supplier which will include being available to deliver a presentation on the ORC system at a workshop attended by SMEs.
