Energy Efficiency Voucher (EEV) Prior Information Notice (PIN)

Description

The purpose of this Prior Information Notice (PIN) is to alert prospective suppliers that the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) is commencing market engagement in relation to multiple requirements across a range of services including:

- Grant administration (counter-fraud, customer care, payment processing);

- Digital services;

- Consultancy;

- Domestic energy efficiency assessments; and

- Energy efficiency measure installations.

DESNZ are in the early stages of designing a scheme provisionally titled the Energy Efficiency Voucher (EEV). EEV will be a three-year domestic retrofit scheme with £400m of government funding, open to homes in England. The department expects to award the contract for the scheme administrator in 2025.

Due to the early stage of scheme design, DESNZ is seeking to engage with a broad array of relevant parties, including those within the construction/retrofit industry and the grant/fund administration sector. The department will subsequently use the engagement to support the shaping of the delivery model and specification of the services.

During the life of this PIN, we anticipate engaging with the market on multiple occasions covering the above requirements, using a variety of engagement methods including requests for information, 1-1s, focus groups and industry days.

For further details please contact: EEV@energysecurity.gov.uk indicating which of the above elements you are interested in along with your contact details. Alternatively, you can complete the form below:

Complete Tender Coverage

Following Brexit, the new official Find a Tender system has been developed by UK Government to detail all public procurement contract opportunities expected to be over £122, 976 for Central Government or £189,330 for the remainder of the public sector e.g. NHS contracts, Local Authority contracts, Housing Association contracts. Publishing requirements for all of the public sector are in place to ensure transparency, fairness and open competition.

All UK public sector opportunities under these values, but over £10,000 for central government or over £25,000 for other public sector organisations, are still required to be published on Contracts Finder. Scotland, Wales and NI also have their own dedicated sites: Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales, eSourcing NI and eTendersNI.

Complete Tenders have centralised and consolidated all of this information into a single, easy to use platform that is updated hourly with all new opportunities.
