  • Cambridgeshire County Council

Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-058070

Description

The Council is looking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced UK-based service provider to undertake research and analysis of the role nature-based solutions could play in the financial viability of low carbon energy projects.

This project is looking to develop a theoretical, evidence-based report to improve understanding of how nature-based solutions and ecosystem services could:

• Deliver financial benefits in the context of net zero projects

• Reduce long-term climate and operational risks associated with projects

• Strengthen the investment case for nature-inclusive energy or infrastructure schemes

• Explore mechanisms for monetising biodiversity or ecosystem services

• Generate 1-2 plausible demonstrator concepts that could be taken forward

The main deliverables will include the Main report presenting the key findings of the research, an executive summary and a slide pack of the report findings. The contract for this programme will run for approximately 2 months, concluding on the 30th November 2025.
