    "description": "Peterborough Limited\u0027s Energy Services Team are responsible for managing, maintaining and co-ordinating Peterborough City Council\u0027s (PCC) solar photovoltaic (PV) assets.  Peterborough Limited (PL) along with a group of contractors have managed the portfolio since PCC took ownership of the portfolio in November 2021 and PL are now tendering for contractors to deliver the maintenance and service provision for the coming 2-4 years. PL is a private limited company wholly owned by PCC.\r\n\r\n1.1 PURPOSE\r\nPCC own 7653 domestic solar PV assets of differing sizes (between 0.75 and 4 kWp [9.75, 9.8 and 20.3 kWp in Boston]) and a further 64 corporate solar PV assets of differing sizes (between 6 and 200 kWp), all contributing to PCC\u0027s net zero target and to its ongoing maintenance needs via FiT.

Refer to Appendix D for the requirements of the health check.\r\n\r\nThe contractor(s) may get requests from residents/nominated contacts to complete actions on behalf of PL these should be immediately referred to PL and not acted upon without express permission or instruction from PL.\r\n\r\n*LOT C - There may be a requirement to conduct an annual inspection regime on our 64 corporate sites, this would need to cover as a minimum the Intermediate Inspection as detailed in Appendix A with a possibility of a more in-depth inspection meeting the requirements of the Full Inspection on the same Appendix A.  It will be on the sole discretion of PL of the type of inspection (i.e. Intermediate or Full) that the contractor will be required to undertake.\r\n\r\n1.3 LOCATION\r\nLOT A - Northeast [Newcastle, Durham and Sunderland] 2,970 assets (Post Code regions DH4, DH5, NE37, NE38, SR1, SR2, SR3, SR4, SR5, SR6)\r\n\r\nLOT B - Central [Doncaster, Scunthorpe and Stockport] 1,697 assets (Post Code regions DN9, DN15, DN16, DN17, DN18, DN19, DN20, DN21, DN38, DN39, DN40, SK1, SK2, SK3, SK4, SK5, SK6, SK7, SK8)\r\n\r\nLOT C - Peterborough [Boston, Peterborough Domestic and Corporate, Corby and Northampton] 1,992 assets (Post Code regions LE16, LN9, NN2, NN3, NN4, NN5, NN14, NN17, NN18, PE1, PE2, PE3, PE4, PE6, PE7, PE8, PE11, PE14, PE15, PE19, PE20, PE21, PE22, PE25, PE26, PE28)\r\n\r\nLOT D - Southeast [Gravesend] 1,055 asset",
