This project, categorised under energy-efficiency consultancy services, aims to address the lack of visibility of the UK energy supply chain for promotional purposes abroad. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage, having ended the tender period on 27th October 2017. The awarded contract, valued at £124,000, spans from 6th November 2017 to 30th April 2018, with deliverables focused on assessing supply chain readiness in the areas of Smart Power, Energy Storage, and District Heat Networks. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating within the energy sector, particularly those specialising in consultancy services related to energy efficiency and research and development. Companies with expertise in these areas can leverage this project to expand their market reach, enhance their international capabilities, and potentially establish ongoing partnerships with government entities such as the Department for International Trade and the Foreign Commonwealth Office, who are keen to promote UK innovations overseas. ## Notice Through discussion with UK innovators and various government departments, it is clear there is a lack of knowledge and visibility of the UK energy supply chain capability that can be promoted overseas. This project would start to solve that problem by developing a detailed assessment of specific parts of the energy landscape where the likes of Department for International Trade (DIT) and the Foreign Commonwealth Office (FCO) have identified strong future export opportunities The ESC is seeking a partner or partners to undertake an assessment of the supply chain across 3 key areas and identify the export readiness through dialogue with a range of companies across the energy sector.
