Short description

United Utilities Water Limited (UUW) operates a fleet of biogas fuelled Combined Heat & Power (CHP) engines which are located at their sludge digestion sites.
Developing our future strategy we are undertaking pre-market research to understand market offerings for the following services.
1) Design and build (DB) of CHP installations
2) Design, build and finance (DBF) installations, with O&M by UUW
3) Design, build, finance, operate and maintain (DBFOM)
For option 3 we are interested in understanding how this model can be delivered, e.g. would this be through the sale of the biogas from UUW to the provider, and/or sale of electricity and heat back to UUW.
Responses detailing variations of the above services are welcome.
