## Summary

Wave Energy Scotland Limited is the buying organisation for the tender titled "WES PTO Stage Gate (Stage 2 to 3) - External Experts," located in Inverness, UK. This procurement falls under the services sector, specifically aimed at secondary energy conversion technologies (Power Take-Off systems).

The awarded contract, signed on 14 September 2017, has a total value of £27,465 and takes place under an open procedure, allowing for competitive bidding.

This tender provides an excellent opportunity for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), with expertise in technical evaluation of energy technologies, to engage with Wave Energy Scotland.

## Notice

This is a Contract Award notice and as such this process is now complete. WES's first call technology area was for secondary energy conversion technologies (Power Take-Off (PTO) systems), which closed on 22 May 2015.
