The tender period ended on 18 April 2017, with the resulting contract commencing on 22 May 2017 and concluding on 31 August 2017. The procurement was categorized under an 'Other' method.

This project presents an opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in research and development, particularly in decarbonisation technologies and policy analysis.

The project 'International Comparisons of Heating, Cooling and Heat Decarbonisation Policies' project will contribute to building a broader knowledge base within BEIS of how other countries are coping with similar challenges around heating/cooling decarbonisation and opportunities for international collaboration and learning.
