## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by Associated British Ports (ABP), revolves around the "Renewable Energy Framework - Wind." This project, classified under the CPV code 71242000, focuses on project and design preparation for wind technology services. Located in the UK, the current stage of procurement is "Award," following a selective procurement method through a negotiated procedure with prior call for competition. The contract, established on 28th September 2021, aims to significantly expand ABP's renewable energy assets beyond the current 29 MW target over the next five years, employing Developer Partners for project feasibility and development. The tender period for submissions concluded on 21st May 2021.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses looking to grow within the renewable energy sector, specifically those with expertise in wind technology and project management. Companies specialising in engineering design and project preparation would be particularly well-suited. The successful Developer Partners will lead project activities, including gaining planning consents and preparing designs, without holding equity stakes in the projects. As such, this framework can enable firms to secure long-term contracts in a rapidly expanding market, aligning with the UK’s commitment to increasing renewable energy generation.
