## About this tender

The overall purpose of the work included in this invitation to tender is to provide information on the feasible technical capability (particularly regarding flexibility of generation) and costs of CCUS power technologies.

BEIS is looking for a contractor or contractors to provide external technical advice to an analytical project looking at the role of CCUS within the UK electricity system. The work aims to update the representation of Power CCUS within BEIS internal modelling tools and to use these tools to assess the role of CCUS.

The overall purpose of the work included in this invitation to tender is to provide information on the feasible technical capability (particularly regarding flexibility of generation) and costs of CCUS power technologies, which can be used to update modelling assumptions in the BEIS Dynamic Dispatch Model. This should cover three CCUS power applications, including:

â&#128;¢ Combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) with post-combustion capture and storage

â&#128;¢ Oxy-fuel combustion with gas, with carbon capture and storage

â&#128;¢ Hydrogen generation with carbon capture and storage, intermediate hydrogen storage, and hydrogen turbines

This work will involve provision of technical assumptions to BEIS in the form of data tables and a report. These assumptions will be used to update the Dynamic Dispatch Model (DDM). The external technical advisor will also be required to attend a meeting at BEIS after the updated model runs are complete, to give feedback on the operation of the model.

Additional information: The contractor must demonstrate in-depth technical knowledge of:

- Combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) with post-combustion capture and storage
- Oxy-fuel combustion with natural gas, with carbon capture and storage
- Hydrogen generation with carbon capture and storage, intermediate hydrogen storage, and hydrogen turbines
- The electricity system and the role of different generators within it.

The work specified here forms part of a wider work programme to update BEIS internal modelling and assess the role of CCUS within the electricity system. It needs to be undertaken and completed prior to April 2018.
