The Chief Officer Sustainable Energy and Air Quality has approved the waiver of CPR 8.1 and 8.2 to award a contract to Sweco UK Ltd to carry out feasibility studies for potential Phase 3 extensions of the District Heating Network to the Southbank. The studies are funded through HNDU and Energy Accelerator grant funding, which restrict the councils ability to carry out a competitive procurement.
