Preliminary Market Consultation (PMC) Energy and Carbon Project Energy Service Company

We seek the market’s views on a delivery model for our Energy and Carbon programme, the merits and applicability of each approach and alternative views on energy strategy achievement. The model must directly support NELC’s priorities and energy vision, quickly realising projects and services. NELC has so far identified the following approaches as having the greatest relevancy to its thinking -Strategic partnership with a lead service provider – local authority partners with an organisation that will take management responsibility for the delivery of a range of services, on an output or outcome basis, over the medium to long term -Arms-length local authority venture with supporting supply chain, operationally distinct from NELC by virtue of control and business planning mechanisms, with lead responsibility for delivering projects, drawing on third party support -Investment fund, originates and supports projects via a range of finance types and monitors investment performance and status
