Public sector biomass procurement easier with Rural Energy

Biomass heating specialists Rural Energy are now approved suppliers on the Fusion21 Retrofit framework providing a fast, easy solution for public sector organisations to tender retrofit projects.

Fusion21 is a social enterprise that provides procurement service to the public sector. Since it was set up in 2002, the enterprise has delivered savings of £125 million to its members and now has a UK wide membership of over 180 organisations, covering a wide variety of replacement, retrofit and servicing works, including biomass projects.

After completing a comprehensive two part tender process, during which it had to demonstrate its experience and offer example quotes for generic scenarios, Rural Energy has been appointed to the framework and is now one of only two biomass specialists awarded to the four-year framework. Open to any organisation that adheres to Public Contract Regulations, Fusion21 offers a procurement service that means users can avoid costly and time-consuming tendering processes, such as those set out by the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU).

Paul Clark, Managing Director of Rural Energy, commented: “Organising remedial, retrofit or servicing works for public sector organisations can be a bit of a headache with a number of stringent processes that need to be adhered to. The Fusion21 framework however makes things much simpler and we’re proud to a part of it. Becoming more efficient and environmentally friendly should be made as easy as possible for public sector organisations, so we are happy to support the framework.”

Switching to a biomass heating system can have huge benefits for a wide variety of public sector organisations. Not only can operating a biomass system save thousands in running costs and significantly reduce carbon emissions, it can actually generate income through the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) as well.

Rural Energy is one of the longest standing biomass suppliers, having been in the industry for more than 12 years. Able to provide a full turnkey service including system design, installation and maintenance, Rural Energy is well equipped to support all types of public sector organisations in maximising the benefits of renewable biomass heating.
