This procurement, classified under the goods category, involves equipment related to wind-energy generators. The initiative aims to replace grid-purchased power with direct site-generated energy through turbines located on operational land across several regions in the United Kingdom including UKC, UKD, and UKE, among others. Interested parties are encouraged to participate in the preliminary market engagement which is set to close on 8th May 2026. The contract period is scheduled to begin on 1st January 2027 and conclude by 31st December 2030, with potential extension options available. This tender offers significant opportunities for turbine manufacturers and suppliers, especially those capable of providing turbines in the range of 500 kW to 3.45 MW, as well as sub-250 kW for later phases. Businesses specialised in wind turbines and turbine-related services such as transport management, installation, and after-sales maintenance stand to benefit greatly. Suppliers interested in direct purchases from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) or engaging in broker-facilitated procurement or framework agreements are particularly well-suited. Given the procurement is open to both new and refurbished turbines, the opportunity encourages participation by small and medium enterprises to contribute innovative solutions to Yorkshire Water's green energy efforts. ## Notice Yorkshire Water (YW) and Kelda are seeking to engage the market to discuss their planned deployment of new on-shore wind turbines. Work done to date indicates deployments of 1-3 turbines at each location, with 7 sites under consideration initially plus 2 re-powering sites. As YW and Kelda look to expand this programme, they anticipate a small scale wind development programme in addition. The deployments would be on YW operational land and would directly power the adjacent operational site, offsetting grid purchased power. Early turbine identification, based on site constraints and available wind yields, suggests Kelda are looking to initially procure in the 500 kW - 3.45 MW range. This will result in a variance of turbine sizes from hub heights between 40 - 80 meters, and tip heights up to the region of, but not limited to, 117 metres. Later phases of wind development will be in the sub 250 kW range. The purpose of this notice is to open discussion with turbine manufacturers / suppliers to understand; - Equipment / turbines availability; - Indicative lead times for supply; - Indicative pricing, both capex and opex; - Indicative commercial terms; and - After sales maintenance provision. - Transport management - Installation These are non-conclusive and are likely to change as development progresses. YW and Kelda anticipate the award of the procurement in 3 bandings: 1. 1MW A procurement partner may look to cover all of these bandings or just 1. YW and Kelda are open to both new and refurbished turbines via direct purchases from OEMs, broker facilitated procurement and framework agreements. ### Planning Information If you are interested in taking part in this pre-market engagement please email FMandEnergyCommercialTeam@yorkshirewater.co.uk with the subject line "Wind turbine PME" In the email please include your company details, which of the 3 lots you are able to provide and some examples of previous installations in the UK. We may look to advance the PME by hold meetings to discuss what is available to us and the mechanics for delivery. This will update our market intelligence prior to any tendering activity however this is not guaranteed nor is there any guarantee of tendering activity post closure of this engagement period. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/030058-2026 | | Notice type | UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 31 Mar 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 8 May 2026 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Jan 2027 - 31 Dec 2030 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Planning | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | YORKSHIRE WATER SERVICES LIMITED | | Locality | BRADFORD | | Post town | Bradford | | Postcode | BD6 2SZ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE41 Bradford | | Local authority | Bradford | | Electoral ward | Royds | | Westminster constituency | Bradford South | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLE Yorkshire and The Humber, TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLI London, TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 31 - Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting ### Codes - 31121300 - Wind-energy generators - 31121320 - Wind turbines - 31121330 - Wind turbine generators - 31121331 - Turbine rotors ## Release History - 31 Mar 2026 at 19:59 - PlanningUpdate - UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/030058-2026 - 31 Mar 2026 at 19:46 - Planning - UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/030055-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/030058-2026 31st March 2026 - Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/030055-2026 31st March 2026 - Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
