Description

1. Introduction & Background 1.1 Severn Trent Water Company Profile Severn Trent Water Ltd (Severn Trent) serves over eight million people in the heart of the UK, supplying nearly two billion litres of drinking water a day to the highest standards in Europe. Severn Trent take away used water and treats it at over 1,000 sewage works and put it safely back into rivers and streams. Severn Trent operates in an area of more than 21,000 square kilometres, stretching from the Bristol Channel to the Humber estuary and along the Welsh boarder to the East Midlands. This area takes in the basins of the rivers Severn and Trent, from which the company derives its name, and includes Birmingham and ten other major industrial cities. For further information on Severn Trent and Procurement including detail of the company structure and area of operation please visit our web site www.stwater.co.uk 1.2 Severn Trent Water and its Supply Chain • Severn Trent aim to transform one of our large wastewater treatment works into the first net carbon neutral wastewater treatment works in the UK by the End of March 2024. • We will achieve this by installing a combination of innovative technologies that will reduce, remove or offset carbon emissions. Severn Trent would like to obtain support from the market to understand what Technologies currently exists under the following targeted Net Zero areas: • Reduce & Remove Technologies (RRT) aligned to the Project or Intervention Accounting: Quantified GHG emissions reduction or removal impacts of projects or interventions which are credited for GHG claims to be transferred between entities • Circular Economy Technologies (CET) aligned to both the above and Inventory Accounting: Emissions and removals in the GHG inventory. These occur in a company's operations and value chain (Reduce/Remove of Scope 1, 2, 3) Within these targeted areas STW has identified the following type of Technology which we may wish to implement on the Net Zero site. This document details the PIN Notice we are conducting and guidance for engagement during this process. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION
