This initiative aims to serve up to 420 homes across various sites in Glasgow, primarily involving the replacement of old electric storage heaters with modern counterparts, alongside the integration of battery storage and solar PV systems. The total value of this planned procurement is approximately £1.7 million, with responses due by 28th January 2022. The association has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to gather insights into this project, which may involve fitting some privately owned flats, pending owner consent. This procurement opportunity presents significant potential for businesses in the energy and construction sectors, particularly those specialising in renewable energy technologies, energy management systems, and building services. Companies capable of providing modern heating solutions, solar power installations, and battery storage systems would be well-suited to compete in this tender. Engaging with Southside Housing Association could also lead to ongoing collaborations related to smart energy management and innovative housing solutions across the region. ## Notice Southside Housing Association is planning procurement to support a Storage Heater, PV and Battery Project to serve up to 420 homes mostly owned by Southside Housing Association in blocks of flats at a number of sites in Glasgow. The package is planned to include replacement of old electric storage heaters with modern electric storage heaters plus battery storage in individual flats, together with centralised solar PV (on some roofs and over some car parking areas) plus centralised battery storage to help meet landlord's electricity supply requirements. Complementing this, Southside Housing Association propose to enter into a commercial agreement with a grid services aggregator which will provide smart energy management to optimise tenant benefits plus agreed grid services utilising project assets to generate revenue to Southside Housing Association. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Southside Housing Association is planning procurement to support a Storage Heater, PV and Battery Project to serve up to 420 homes mostly owned by Southside Housing Association in blocks of flats at a number of sites in Glasgow.
