This project focuses on renewable technology solutions, specifically targeting homes unsuitable for conventional roof-mounted solar panels. The procurement falls under the industry category of solar installation, with key components including power or solar diodes and solar panel roof-covering work. Interested businesses must submit their tenders by 21 February 2025, and the contract period will commence on 31 March 2025, concluded by 30 March 2026. The procurement method is an open procedure, valuing approximately £500,000, and is open to SMEs. This tender offers significant opportunities for companies specializing in renewable energy solutions, particularly those experienced in implementing solar technology in residential settings. The project not only aids in expanding business portfolios in the green energy market but also supports Harrow's strategic goals to address fuel poverty and transition to low carbon heating. Firms with expertise in designing innovative solar solutions are well-suited to compete, benefiting from contributing to a high-profile decarbonisation effort and ensuring properties reach or exceed an EPC rating of C. This project supports sustainable business growth while contributing to the broader objectives of the HET programme and Harrow's commitment to decarbonisation. ## Notice The London Borough of Harrow is inviting tenders for the provision of a design & build solution for the solar canopy renewable technology solution. This forms one part of a proposed offering of three forms of photovoltaic provision that forms part of the H.E.T programme. The Solar canopy project provides an average Reduced Data Standard Assessment Procedure (RDSAP) uplift of 8 to 11 points, and targets dwellings which may be identified as not suited to traditional roof mounted solar PV due to roof size, orientation and obstacles. Furthermore, an approved resident referrals process forms part of this retrofit phase. The London Borough of Harrow completed a successful growth bid as part of the wider decarbonisation programme plan for Energy Company Obligation [ECO], H.E.T and other major retrofit schemes in 2023. As part of this plan, the H.E.T programme will deliver a PS4.5m programme of work, addressing key strategic drivers with retrofit interventions including a transition to low carbon heating and renewable technology, further to fabric works to circa 200 homes. Harrow's H.E.T implementation strategy sets out a clear delivery pathway across 3 years, significantly contributing to meeting Harrow's climate emergency directives and central government energy efficiency targets contributing to the roadmap to Net Zero, by achieving a minimum EPC rating of C initially with a fabric-first approach across all homes. The programme will also be taking a number of properties to an EPC rating of B with a combination of additional energy efficiency measures. The programme is set to deliver critical phases of Harrow's wider decarbonisation plan with the first milestone housing project to demonstrate a transition to low carbon heating, addressing fuel poverty with renewable technology integration. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5fb51727-2410-4f8e-82d7-82890f1848b6 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Jan 2025 | | Submission deadline | 21 Feb 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Mar 2025 - 30 Mar 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £500,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HARROW COUNCIL | | Locality | HARROW | | Post town | Harrow | | Postcode | HA1 2XY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI7 Outer London - West and North West | | ITL 3 | TLI74 Harrow and Hillingdon | | Local authority | Harrow | | Electoral ward | Marlborough | | Westminster constituency | Harrow West | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 09 - Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy - 31 - Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 09332000 - Solar installation - 31712347 - Power or solar diodes - 45261215 - Solar panel roof-covering work ## Release History - 23 Jan 2025 at 16:11 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5fb51727-2410-4f8e-82d7-82890f1848b6 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5fb51727-2410-4f8e-82d7-82890f1848b6 23rd January 2025 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.harrow.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
