The exercise will identify, evaluate, and prioritise potential heat network opportunities, and any potential schemes will be fully modelled to understand whether a heat network is technically and economically viable, with recommendations for potential phasing, timeline, key dependencies, and constraints. The proposed work must provide B&NES with a clear and justifiable basis upon which to determine the likely potential for heat networks in the study area for both short and long term, and how these may be best delivered. It should be sufficient to enable B&NES to determine whether to progress to more detailed techno-economic feasibility work, and the judge the value in submitting sites for detailed analysis as part of the West of England Mayoral Combined Authority (WoE MCA) study. The study should consider, but not be limited to, considering the scope to use mine water heat - drawing on the outputs of the WoE MCA studies undertaken to date, the outputs of which will be made available to the appointed Supplier.
