Guy's and St. Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust is procuring a Strategic Sustainability Transformation Framework Agreement which will provide a model for public sector bodies wishing to implement energy efficiency and local energy generation measures to their buildings or estate. The Framework Agreement will be open to those public sector bodies described in Section IV.3. No public sector body is committed to place an order under the Framework Agreement.
The single lot Framework Agreement will have a number of suppliers known as ‘Energy Service Companies’ Company (ESCos) who will, upon being called-off to provide services, identify and implement energy efficiency measures enabling organisations to cut running costs, energy consumption and carbon emissions.
As part of the terms of the Framework Agreement, the ESCo will guarantee a set level of savings over a period of the arrangement. This means associated risks are carried by the ESCo rather than the public sector.
The Framework Agreement will be used for a broad range of measures to reduce CO2 emissions including, but not limited to insulation and building fabric improvements, replacement or upgrading of mechanical and electrical services equipment, water saving devices and the installation of bespoke energy efficiency and generation measures. The Framework Agreement will also include services to support projects such as ongoing maintenance and operation services and potentially financing, or part financing, of projects.
