Energy Partner for Midlothian and surrounding areas

Midlothian Council (the Council) is seeking to procure an energy partner. The Council wishes to identify a partner with the most economically advantageous tender to work with the Council on the scoping, design, procurement, financing, implementation, delivery, operation and maintenance of decentralised energy projects in Midlothian and the surrounding areas (including but not limited to district heatin, direct wire electricity, solar PV and electric vehicles) together with associated works, services and supplies. The first project likely to be progressed is the development, delivery and operation of a top up/back up energy centre and associated district heating network to serve the new emerging Shawfair Town. The primary source of low carbon heat will be from an adjacent existing Energy from Waste facility. The Council requires elements of this project to be commissioned by September 2021 to meet applicable funding conditions.
