With co-funding from the European Regional Development Fund, the University of Sheffield has established a flagship Translational Energy Research Centre (TERC) – a national multi-technology, integrated platform for research, development and innovation at pilot-scale, to understand and demonstrate green energy solutions for a sustainable, affordable and secure energy system. It is one of the largest and best-equipped research and development facilities in Europe for zero-carbon energy, hydrogen, bioenergy, combustion and carbon capture with storage/utilisation.

TERC is looking to further expand its current capabilities and equipment portfolio in this area. We are therefore looking to procure two lots:

LOT 1: Retrofitting a hydrogen-fired combustor for conversion of a gas turbine

LOT 2: Fuel handling and mixing skid, with feeding system

At the time of undertaking the procurement exercise we were unable to define the connection works as we were unable to pre-empt the technical solution put forward by the market. Equally, suppliers would be unable to specify without site specific information. We then planned to arrange the connection ourselves. Due to the requirement for complete (end to end) connection of services for warranty purposes we had to use the original supplier.
