Technical requirements: Scottish Water Horizons have committed to deliver 90 GWh of new renewable energy generation projects across all aspects of the SW estate, employing a variety of established and emerging technologies and are seeking companies to deliver the schemes.
This programme will be delivered over an est. 10-year period with installations varying from small-scale 25-50 kW installs to large projects normally not greater than 5 MW, although in some circumstances the projects may exceed 5 MW these will be the exception.
Via this procurement Scottish Water will be seeking primarily direct labour organisations that can self-deliver renewable energy schemes examples of some are listed below:
The contractor should be capable of providing a turnkey project including development and design, install and operating stages of the product lifecycle.

Solar projects will vary in size and will be in the range of small installations from 50 kW total installed capacity up to a potential 5 MW – these projects will be a combination of ground and roof mounted and may be co-located or stand alone. These solar projects may account for an estimated 75-90 % of the total work allocated through lot 1.
— The contractor should be capable of providing installation of energy storage equipment in front of or behind the meter either as a stand-alone project or as part of a combined on-site generation scheme with the aforementioned solar projects.
— The contractor should be capable of providing installation of wind generated renewable energy schemes to offset asset consumption or export to the grid. Wind projects will vary in size and the model and type of wind turbine will vary according to requirement of project.
— The contractor should be capable of providing installation of hydro generated renewable energy schemes to offset asset consumption or export to the grid. Hydro projects will vary in size and the model and type of hydro turbine will vary according to requirement of project.
— The contractor should be capable of horizon scanning alternative renewable energy technologies and presenting to SWH commercially viable projects based on these alternative technologies,
— The contractor will require to have had previous experience of electrical/mechanical installations on live water and waste water sites preferably in the UK.
