Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council (RMBC) are keen to understand the market options and availability for an upcoming procurement for the development of the internal business case for a local area energy plan covering the geographic area of Rotherham Metropolitan Borough. Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council (RMBC) wishes to understand the capacity of the market to deliver a Local Area Energy Plan (LAEP) which covers the geographic area of Rotherham Metropolitan Borough; the full range of innovation which the market can provide, in respect of LAEP outputs; and the likely costs and timescales associated with different levels of ambition, in drafting the specification for a Rotherham LAEP. RMBC also wishes to understand the capacity of the market, costs and timescales associated with assessing the feasibility of a low carbon district heat network in Rotherham Town Centre, to include the identification of heat network opportunity areas, evaluation of low carbon heat sources (including but not limited to mine water heat, waste heat from industry and air, water or ground source heat pumps combined with renewable electricity generation) and technologies for implementation, delivery models, project costs, forecast return on investment and opportunities to attract external funding and investment. This market engagement therefore seeks to gather any knowledge and insights which potential suppliers can provide, regarding the preparation of a Rotherham LAEP and heat network study, their outputs and viability. All costs associated with providing a response to the market engagement must be borne by the Supplier. RMBC will not contribute in any way to meeting the production costs of any response.
