Inverclyde Council's school entitled 'The Port Glasgow Community Campus' has a biomass heating system which acts as the primary heating system for the school. In order to maintain its obligations under the RHI, the wood pellets supplied must adhere to certain criteria. The obligation with respect to air quality is that the wood pellets must not have a moisture content greater than the maximum moisture content specified on the RHI Emissions Certificate, i.e. 12%. The obligation with respect to sustainability is that the biomass fuel used is registered on the Biomass Suppliers List (BSL). The BSL lets suppliers register themselves as sellers of fuels that meet the greenhouse gas limit and land criteria.
This tender is for the Supply & Delivery of Wood Pellets for the Biomass Heating System at The Port Glasgow Community Campus.

The bidder in turn must provide their BSL approved registration number and BSL fuel authorisation number and date or equivalent.
Bidders will be required to include relevant documentation concerning wood pellets, notably certification relating to the BEIS RHI BSL, or equivalent accreditation of the wood pellets, e.g. ENPlus, certification confirming wood pellets have moisture content below 12% and confirmation that blown delivery can be accommodated.
The moisture content of the wood pellets must be less than 12% and a fuel emissions certificate must be provided.
There is no guarantee given to the amount of work or value to be generated by any contract award resulting from this Tender.
