PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION ### Lot Information Lot 1 CET Desired Technology - EPHYRA 1. Required Outputs of Technology 1.1 Reconfiguration of digesters (post-Thermal Hydrolysis Process) to plug flow digestion which will lead to improved volatile solids break down and biogas yield and hence biogas production. 1.2 Increased VS and DS destruction which reduces downstream methane emissions and means less sludge requiring dewatering and recycling. 2. Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 2.1Technology must currently be between = or > TRL 8 3. Technology - Contracted & Delivered on site 3.1Technology must be capable of being installed and operational on site by the End of March 2024 1.4 Supplier Interest Suppliers who feel that they can meet the requirements of the desired Technology should provide written confirmation via SAP Ariba that they can meet the following requirements: 1. Technology Outputs 2. Meet the TRL level 3. Technology could be installed and operational on site by the End of March 2024 Severn Trent will evaluate the written confirmation, before requesting further information & evidence from the supplier to further validate the supplier confirmation. Following the conclusion of the PIN notice Severn Trent may, at its discretion run a full procurement exercise.
