## Summary

The contract titled "Contractors for the provision of hydrogen end user skills and standards for heat supporting research and evidence" was awarded by the Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) on 10 January 2022. This procurement falls under the hydrogen industry category and is based in the United Kingdom. The contract period runs from 10 January 2022 to 31 March 2023, and the competitive procurement method used was an open procedure. The tender process was concluded with the announcement of multiple awards on 7 February 2022, with a total value of approximately £218,275 for the research and development services required.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in hydrogen-related research, consultancy, and gas infrastructure development. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete, focusing on the specific research lots such as gas pressure equipment and material suitability for hydrogen applications. Companies with expertise in gas appliances, research services, or those already involved in the oil and gas sector can leverage their capabilities to contribute to this critical initiative supporting UK carbon reduction policies.

## Notice

BEIS has appointed contractors to undertake desk based research and field work on hydrogen to support the development of standards required for the re-purposing of existing gas infrastructure downstream of the emergency control valve to be used with hydrogen. This programme will serve to support and inform future policy appraisal in Government and to inform the development of policies and measures to meet UK carbon budgets. The work covers a range of priority research areas to support the creation of standards which will support hydrogen trials in the UK.
