The procurement process is currently at the planning stage with an engagement end date set for 15th August 2023. The tender aims to finance practical improvements to the education estate towards achieving net zero emissions. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in lighting systems, building construction, heating works, and other construction-related services to partner with LocatED in delivering decarbonisation interventions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) with expertise in energy efficiency and sustainability initiatives would be well-suited to engage in this procurement process. The market engagement session scheduled for 15th August 2023 will provide detailed information on the project's scope and requirements for feasibility studies, offering a platform for businesses to showcase their capabilities in contributing to a greener future. ## Notice Net Zero Accelerator market engagement session, to be held online via MS Teams from 10.00am - 11.00am on Tuesday 15 August 2023. The education estate represents 36% of all English public sector building emissions and schools alone spend over PS640m a year on energy. The education sector is one of the most active in the construction market in the UK. Our ambition is to set up a new "loan and delivery" scheme to finance and deliver practical improvements to the education estate. The scheme will create estate efficiencies and unlock savings to deliver a positive return on investment - the "Net Zero Accelerator." We are looking for partners to deliver a 'proof of concept' that will demonstrate the financial viability of a hierarchy of decarbonisation interventions, including condition and fabric improvements, adaptation measures, energy efficiency and energy generation. The market engagement session will provide more detail on the scale of our ambition and give an outline of our requirements for the feasibility study, which launches in early autumn. We will be joined by Sharon McHale from DfE's Sustainability and Climate Change Unit who will provide further background on DfE's ambition to achieve net zero in the school estate. Meeting the challenge of fighting climate change plays a significant part in creating a safer, better, greener world for future generations. We are working to ensure the education estate leads the way in the journey towards net zero and a more sustainable future.
