This initiative involves reducing gas and electricity consumption in Council-owned buildings. The project, funded by the Public Sector Decarbonisation Fund (PSDS) and the Low Carbon Skills Fund (LCSF), includes surveys and investment-grade proposals for several sites, focusing on heat decarbonisation plans. The contract period runs from 23rd September 2024 to 22nd December 2024, with all works to be completed by 31st December 2024. The final grant claim must be submitted by 31st March 2025. The procurement process involved an open procedure below the threshold, making it suitable for both SMEs and VCSEs. This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for consultancy firms specialising in environmental issues and decarbonisation projects. The successful business will need to demonstrate expertise in creating investment-grade proposals and complying with strict funding requirements. SMEs and voluntary sector enterprises will find this contract particularly accessible, given the Council's emphasis on inclusive procurement. The project also provides a chance to contribute to significant environmental sustainability efforts and may pave the way for future governmental projects in similar domains. ## Notice Surrey County Council (SCC) has committed to be a net-zero council by 2030 and has a programme to rapidly and consistently decrease gas and electricity consumption in the buildings the Council owns and operates (Scope 1 and 2).
