## About this tender

Tewkesbury Borough Council is a forward thinking authority who is looking to install renewable energy technologies on suitable buildings owned by the Council, taking advantage of the government financial incentives to reduce the council’s carbon footprint.

This initial tender is for the supply and install of an estimated 80kwh photovoltaic system at the council offices site, Gloucester Road, Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire. GL20 5TT.

Further suitable sites, including domestic properties and a leisure centre maybe identified at a later phase and will be covered by a separate ITT.

Due to the changes in the feed in tariff (FIT), time is of the essence and the system must be commissioned and FIT registered to take advantage of the current tariffs.

We have been advised that planning isn’t required although the installation upon the flat roof must not exceed 1 metre higher than any part of the roof.

The successful contractor is required to obtain the Distribution Network Operator (DNO) approval for the installation.
