UK1 Industrial Decarbonisation Research Programme (IDRP)
The procurement contact named on the official notice.
This is a large award for Research & Development — above three-quarters of comparable contracts. Based on 20,405 valued Research & Development tenders in our corpus.
DESNZ is seeking to procure a consortium to deliver a research programme to build the policy-relevant evidence base for decarbonisation of the industrial sector and carbon management.
The research will be spread across four main work packages on: 1.
Industrial Fuel switching including electrification and alternative fuels 2.
Resource and energy efficiency in industry 3.
Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage and engineered Greenhouse Gas Removals 4.
Lifecycle Assessment methods and applications in industry Additional work packages will include a flexible fund to respond to emerging evidence needs, a data and stakeholder engagement work package underpinning the entire programme and additional stand-alone projects.
The programme will focus on building the required evidence base, translating existing evidence alongside new analysis and data collection and modelling to support decision-making in industrial decarbonisation.
Alongside this, a dissemination, knowledge transfer and policy translation role will be necessary to maximise impact of the research.
The programme will require expertise on a number of industrial sectors, decarbonisation measures, technology sustainability and cost assessment, interactions with other sectors and supply chains and understanding of policy contexts.
Methods to be employed will include literature reviews, quantitative and qualitative data collection, stakeholder engagement and interviews, modelling and analysis skills, project management and dissemination as well as policy analysis.
We expect a consortium of suppliers to be the most likely optimal delivery body for this research due to the breadth of topics and skills.
Outputs will likely include reports, data and models, decision support tools, case studies, teach-ins, and on-call briefings and scientific support.
The research and outputs will be co-designed with policy stakeholders to ensure policy relevance and will have built-in flexibility to respond to emerging policy needs.
DESNZ is holding a supplier event on MS Teams on 5th of February 12:30pm, consisting of a presentation by DESNZ.
This will be designed to enable feedback from the potential suppliers as well as to catalyse consortium formation.
