## Summary

The procurement process involves an Invitation to Tender for administering the Biomass Suppliers List (BSL) on behalf of the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS). This tender falls under the financial and insurance services industry category, with the procurement characterised as an open procedure above the threshold. Key dates include the publication date of 15th January 2021 and a submission deadline of 19th February 2021. The contract is set to commence on 1st July 2021 and conclude on 30th June 2023, with delivery locations spanning the United Kingdom, Isle of Man, Guernsey, and Jersey.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in sustainability and renewable energy sectors, particularly those supplying solid biomass fuels such as logs, chips, or pellets. Companies with expertise in compliance with sustainability criteria are well-suited to compete for this contract. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, making it an ideal opportunity for innovative suppliers aiming to expand their market reach within the renewable energy framework.

## Notice

The Biomass Suppliers List consists of suppliers of solid biomass fuel (log, chip or pellet) who have demonstrated that the fuel they have listed on the BSL complies with the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) sustainability criteria. It also includes self-suppliers of woody biomass (both groups are defined later in this document). The key aims of the BSL are to: 1) create a list of woody biomass suppliers who are selling woody biomass fuel that complies with the RHI sustainability and land use criteria; and, 2) provide access to a public-facing version of this list so RHI participants can purchase BSL authorised fuel in order to demonstrate compliance with the sustainability criteria set out in the RHI Regulations.
