Description

Network Rail (NR) operates, maintains and develops Britain’s rail infrastructure. NR is one of the UK’s largest purchasers of electricity, currently purchasing c. 4.4 TWh per annum (traction 3.95 TWh and non-traction 0.45 TWh). His Majesty’s Government (HMG) has made legal commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to Net Zero by 2050. As a government owned enterprise, NR has committed to support achieving this objective including a target to fully decarbonise its non-traction consumption by 2030. NR wishes to engage with the potential renewable energy developers to build a portfolio of rooftop (on-site) solar PVs across Scotland’s Railway. The developer will be expected to survey, fund, construct, own, operate and maintain the solar PVs on the selected rooftops. NR will grant leases to the developer for the respective sites and will purchase the renewable electricity produced via power purchase agreements for the useful life of the solar PVs (expected to be c. 25 years). The developer will be granted and exclusive development term subject to achieving agreed milestones. NR would like potential developers to contact through the NR Bravo portal to provide input to NR's plans as part of the preparations for a procurement which is expected to launch in the April 2023. This market engagement exercise is expected to end on 8 March 2023.
