The Innovation and Future Technologies Lot provides a route to market for emerging, innovative and future focused decarbonisation and retrofit solutions that include a Service and/or Works element as part of their delivery.
The purpose of this Lot is to support PfH members in accessing the next generation of technologies and approaches capable of accelerating carbon reduction, improving building performance, and delivering more efficient, resilient and sustainable retrofit outcomes.
This Lot is not intended for standalone innovative products or materials supplied without installation. It is designed for suppliers offering complete, deliverable solutions, incorporating Services and/or Works that result in measurable decarbonisation and retrofit benefits.
Solutions submitted under this Lot may include, but are not limited to heating, energy efficiency, building fabric improvements, load management, integrated renewable systems, low carbon heat technologies, advanced monitoring, or hybrid retrofit innovations that are not yet widely established within the market.
PfH anticipates awarding places to 10 bidders per regions but reserves the right to award places to a greater or fewer number of suppliers depending on the bids received.
