Description

The London Borough of Brent (LBB) is issuing this Prior Information Notice for a district heating network in South Kilburn. The Council is seeking a contractor to design, build, operate and maintain the ‘South Kilburn District Heat Network’ (SKDHN) to serve the South Kilburn regeneration area. SKDHN will be fully owned by the Authority and will be built out over four phases. The Authority will own the heat generating plant and distributing network to the heat exchangers. The term of the contract is for an anticipated build period between 2024 and 2030. The term of contract includes fifteen years operation period with the ability for the Authority to extend for an additional period up to 10 years. Following the installation of air source heat pumps (ASHPs), the completed network will supply low carbon heat via a buried network (spine trench length of 2.7km) and its total annual heat demand is expected to be 20.7 GWh.
