## Summary

Angus Housing Association Ltd is currently seeking tenders for the establishment of an Energy Service Company (ESCO) to implement a Ground Source District Heating scheme serving approximately 50 properties in Auchmithie, Angus. The procurement process is at the planning stage, with a total contract value of £650,000. The deadline for submission of expressions of interest is 27th July 2018. This project will specifically take place at Kirkbank, Auchmithie, DD11 5SY, and is classified under the works category in the housing and community amenities sector.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in renewable energy, particularly those experienced in district heating systems and ground source technology. Companies with credentials such as MCS registration for Ground Source Heat Pumps and NICEIC/SELECT registered electricians are encouraged to apply, as these qualifications are crucial for meeting the selection criteria. The successful contractor will manage project funding and ongoing ownership, making this an advantageous bid for established firms in the energy services sector looking to expand their portfolio in sustainable housing solutions.

## Notice

PQQ's are invited by companies capable of delivering the ESCO and ground source district heating scheme.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The PQQ and accompanying ESPD are established to identify suitable contractors with experience of delivering project funding for the capital investment elements of the project as well the technical, managerial and proven track record in the delivery of district heating schemes. The site is located on the Angus coast, just north of Arbroath. The properties are cavity wall construction that currently have electric storage heating in place. Due to there being no prospect of a gas connection at the location, the association have decided to embark on an innovative procurement method to secure a low carbon heating solution for their tenants that will last for the life of the RHI. Ground Source District Heating has been identified as being the most efficient option ongoing and the common areas on the site have been identified as having suitable potential for boreholes. Civils, Mechanical and Electrical performance specifications will be released to those contractors to enable the formal bid stage to commence. It is envisaged that this will take place between mid- August and mid-September. As the successful contractor will be responsible for funding the project, its ongoing ownership and billing, the price elements of the bid process are advisory only and have been restricted to 10% of the overall weighting.
