The contract, part of the Preparing Wales for a Renewable Energy 2050 project, is valued at GBP 70,000 excluding VAT. It aims to research Mid Wales' energy potential under the CCS Heat Networks and Electricity Generation Assets agreement. The contract was signed on September 27, 2022, and Mace Limited was the successful supplier for this tender. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, particularly those offering research consultancy services, to participate in projects related to Wales' transition to a zero-carbon economy by 2050. Consortia bidding is encouraged for this contract, which seeks to address the impact of nature and climate emergencies on infrastructure development in Wales. With a focus on societal well-being and carbon neutrality goals, businesses can contribute to shaping future energy policies and identifying infrastructure needs for a sustainable future. ## Notice The contract is a mini-competition on behalf of the National Infrastructure Commission for Wales (NICW) who are operating under remit from Welsh Ministers, herein after referred to as 'the Client', in order to establish a contract for research: Mid Wales Energy Potential under the CCS Heat Networks and Electricity Generation Assets agreement (RM3824), herein after referred to as 'HELGA'. The estimated value for the contract is GBP 70,000 exc. VAT.This research contract is one of three contracts which NICW is advertising as part of the Preparing Wales for a Renewable Energy 2050 project. We consider that these work packages are suitable for consortia bidding, and that each work package forms a discrete body of work that can be tendered for individually. For all three contracts, we assume that the frameworks of Nature and Climate Emergencies; the Well-being of Future Generations Act; and the 'socio-economic duty' are taken into account.Wales is partway through its second carbon budget, a journey undertaken by statute and with the ultimate goal of (net) zero carbon emissions in Wales by 2050. The 2020s will require a huge shift in carbon intensity, a greater drop than in the previous three decades.To this end the project as a whole seeks to ascertain:-Is Wales' infrastructure and society prepared for the challenge, and for the changes that will be needed?-How can we ensure that the poorest in society are not further disadvantaged by the structural changes? And what will infrastructure developers need to consider if they are to respect Wales' declaration of both Nature and Climate Emergencies?-What will future spatial and energy policies from the Welsh Government need to address?-What additional work is required to identify what infrastructure will be needed to deliver a zero-carbon economy powered by renewables? ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Sell2Wales | | Latest notice | https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=125124 | | Notice type | S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Sep 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 27 Sep 2022 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £70,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LLYWODRAETH CYMRU / WELSH GOVERNMENT | | Locality | CAERDYDD / CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF10 3NQ | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Cathays | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff South and Penarth | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | MACE | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73210000 - Research consultancy services ## Release History - 28 Sep 2022 at 10:32 - Award - S2W Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=125124 ## Notice URLs - http:// ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
