The purpose of this PIN is to allow interested parties with appropriate experience to participate in the development of Transport for London’s integrated energy strategy the strategic objective of which, is as follows:
“In response to the dual financial and environmental energy challenge, TfL will pursue a collation of initiatives prioritised both on financial payback and ability to significantly reduce carbon emissions with the aim of meeting the Mayor’s zero carbon agenda and supporting the electrification of road transport to improve London’s Air Quality”
TfL has a large, predictable and long term electrical energy demand and is exploring a wide range of options to reduce the cost and carbon emissions of the energy supply and future energy sourcing. One option is to source electricity from low carbon and environmentally sustainable energy sources, to meet a proportion of its current and future forecast electricity demand by way of direct connection.
Diversifying the energy supply across varied sources and procurement arrangements may achieve financial benefits, hedge against the prospect of rising energy prices and deliver carbon savings.
