Framework: winning a place puts you on an approved list for future work. It's the entry ticket, not guaranteed work.

In plain English

This framework, run by the Government Commercial Agency, will let public sector buildings across the UK connect to existing heat networks and buy ongoing heat supply, running from 9 June 2027 to 8 June 2035. Being accepted onto the framework is the entry ticket to future work, not a guarantee of any actual contracts.

Good fit for: Heat network operators and energy suppliers able to deliver connections and long-term heat supply to public buildings.

The catch:
  • Single lot covering all work, so no smaller geographic or specialist split
  • Very large framework value of £800,000,000 may favour bigger suppliers
  • Long 8-year contract period requiring long-term delivery capability
