In plain English

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) wants a consultant to assess whether solar panels and battery storage would work at the British High Commission in Lusaka, Zambia. This covers the main office building, the High Commissioner's residence and staff homes, and results in a final report with recommendations for future solar projects.

What the buyer wants

• Site assessments of the Chancery, High Commissioner's Residence and staff residential properties in Lusaka • Energy demand analysis, solar PV generation modelling, battery storage and energy resilience assessment • Financial and economic appraisal, options analysis, and a final feasibility report with recommendations

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

Because the work requires on-site assessments overseas and specialist solar and energy modelling, along with any further criteria in the RFP (which is not included in the notice), a small firm without relevant energy engineering expertise or the ability to work in Zambia may be ruled out.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
