Part B – An outline of the LDA’s requirement. We are seeking to appoint a highly competent and experienced supplier to design, build, install and commission, and then operate and maintain a Combined Heat and Power (‘’CHP’’) based system that will deliver heat and power to the National Sports Centre ("NSC") at Crystal Palace Park, a grade 2* listed building. This project is divided into two distinct phases: Phase one, the design, build, installation and commissioning phase; and phase two the operation and maintenance phase. The successful supplier will be required to possess the requisite skills and experience commensurate with undertaking this important project. Phase one – Design, build, install and commission. Phase one of this project will extend and supplement the existing energy centre at the NSC through the re-engineering of the existing energy centre, including installation of a natural gas fired CHP in the order of 350 kWe capacity, the replacement of existing boilers with high efficiency condensing boilers in the order of 1800 kW capacity the installation of appropriately sophisticated monitoring and control systems and the testing and commissioning of the new installation. Additionally, other supplementary energy efficiency works such as ventilation air heat recovery and heat insulating pool covers for the four swimming pools will form part of the contract. We expect that the successful supplier will bring a high degree of relevant expertise, experience, innovation and flexibility to the project to ensure that the carbon savings and energy savings deliver the lowest cost per tonne of CO2 saved and the greatest reduction in operational energy costs. The supplier will be required to guarantee that the minimum levels of energy production and carbon dioxide savings required under the contract will be achieved by their solution. Minimum levels of savings will be scheduled in the specification. We expect that the selected supplier will further develop and refine the design concepts that will be outlined in the specification documents to ensure that the re-engineered energy centre will be the most cost effective, energy efficient and reliable possible within the budget constraints of approximately 900 000 GBP. Phase Two – Operation and Maintenance. Phase two of the Project is the ongoing operation and maintenance of the primary energy functions of the CHP energy centre to a high standard of efficiency, reliability and safety. It is likely that the current NSC operators will retain responsibility for operation and maintenance of all the secondary energy systems, and it is anticipated that this will include the day to day management of the contract awarded to the successful bidder under this procurement process. Operation and maintenance of the electrical distribution systems will not be included into this contract with exception of the main CHP electrical connections to the site electrical distribution system. During phase two of the contract, the supplier will be expected to maintain the requisite quality of service which will require the supplier to guarantee and achieve the minimum levels of performance of energy production and carbon dioxide savings for the duration of the contract. Accordingly, the contract will include annual minimum energy (heat and electrical) output requirements and minimum standards of operational performance to achieve carbon dioxide savings. The supplier will be required to guarantee that these levels are met. The contract will include mechanisms to deal with standards of service and outputs that fall below the required minimum levels. The LDA’s budget for phase two of this contract is approximately 750 000 GBP. Please note that the LDA retains the right to award all or only part of the scope of services, as the final contract.

Estimated value excluding VAT: 1 650 000 GBP.
