This initiative focuses on the renewable energy sector and is located within Kingston upon Hull. The tender period is open until 15th June 2022, with the contract scheduled to commence on 4th July 2022 and run until 30th June 2023. This procurement follows an open method and is classified under services, primarily in solar installation and related surveying domains. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in environmental consultancy, geotechnical engineering, and surveying services. Companies with expertise in conducting site surveys, including topographical, utilities tracing, and geotechnical investigations, will be well-positioned to compete for this project. The focus on renewable energy initiatives also allows for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to participate, fostering business growth within the sustainable development sector. ## Notice As part of its commitment to become carbon neutral by 2030, the Authority is keen to promote the use of renewable energy and low carbon technologies within the city. The installation of generation assets and energy storage will contribute to the city's decarbonisation ambition and will increase renewable energy generation, decrease reliance on power from centralised production, increase local energy security and resilience and provide the Authority with a long-term low carbon revenue source. This project will form part of a wider scheme of energy decarbonisation within the City and is a key element of the City Plan , and 2030 Carbon Neutral Strategy. The Authority intends to appoint a consultant to undertake site surveys relevant to the installation of solar canopy systems upon surface car parks, and at other sites. The Authority has identified 9 sites to be surveyed for this Solar Canopy Site Survey commission, all of which are located in the Kingston upon Hull area. The Council is therefore seeking bids from suitable qualified and experienced suppliers to fulfil this Solar Canopy Site Survey commission. The appointed consultant will be required to undertake the following surveys to each site: Topographical Survey * RICS ILMS Band C/D Utilities Tracing * PAS:128 Category Type B Geotechnical Site Investigation * Soil Properties * Standard Lab Test Suit * WACS * SPT/CPT Window Samples * Angle of Internal Friction * Cohesive Shear Strengths at Varying Depths It is expected that this work will inform the Authority whether solar canopies can be developed to the sites and identify any constraints/ considerations.
