Description

Anglian Water is establishing this framework as a means to procure renewable energy directly from renewable energy generators in close proximity to our operational sites. The renewable energy generators, for example solar or wind, are either existing assets, or those that are proposed nearby our sites. The consumption of renewable energy is a key component of our route map to Net Zero carbon by 2030 - this framework will support our carbon reduction ambitions, as well as increase operational efficiency.

Total Quantity or Scope

Anglian Water has a number of operational sites across its region which are largely powered by energy from network providers (approx. 700GWh per year). This tender provides an opportunity for suppliers to lay a direct power connection from private energy providers' renewable energy assets to Anglian Water sites in close proximity. The scope of this sourcing activity is to realise opportunities at a local level, rather than securing a renewable energy supply for the entire region. The core principle of this arrangement is that there is a mutual commercial benefit in contracting directly with a private supplier for the supply of electricity; AW would benefit from reduced energy importing costs, whilst the supplier would benefit from long term power purchase agreements (PPAs). It should be noted that PPAs could be in place for 30 years. It is expected that the interconnections installation process will be managed by Anglian's existing capital delivery alliances, or Anglian's own supply chain to ensure any works are delivered safely.
