## Summary

The "Detailed Techno-Economic Feasibility Study for Network Decarbonisation and Expansion" project, led by Liverpool City Council, focuses on assessing the feasibility of removing methane and fossil fuel heat sources and expanding the heat network at Paddington Village in Liverpool. This initiative aligns with Liverpool's Net Zero 2030 commitments and aims to explore the potential for extending the network to nearby low-income housing. The procurement process, classified under environmental engineering consultancy services (CPV 71313000), has been completed, with the award granted to WSP UK Limited. The contract period starts on 1st February 2024 and ends on 29th August 2024, with a project value of £73,752.

This tender creates significant opportunities for growth, specifically for small and medium enterprises in the environmental engineering consultancy sector. Businesses that specialise in sustainability initiatives, especially those with expertise in decarbonisation technologies, could greatly benefit from participating in similar future studies. Given the project's alignment with public health and housing indicators and the broader Net Zero City Plan, companies with capabilities in socio-economic impact assessments and community-based solutions would also find competitive advantages.
