What is being bought

Network Rail operates, maintains and develops Britain's rail tracks, signalling, bridges, tunnels, level crossings and many key stations. As a result, Network Rail is one of the largest purchasers of electricity in the United Kingdom with a total consumption of c.4.5 TWh per annum (traction 4.1 TWh and non-traction 0.45 TWh). Her Majesty's Government has made legal commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050. Network Rail as a government-owned enterprise is committed to support the achievement of this objective. To support the achievement of this objective, Network Rail is initially seeking to procure between 0.5 and 1 TWh per annum of renewable electricity through a physical (corporate) PPA. Network Rail is willing to consider tenors of up to 25 years, and this could be supplied by one or more counterparties, from one or more assets, with delivery of power from in 2026. A tender is expected to launch in early 2023, with a contract value of up to £1.25bn.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 09. The category anchor is Electricity (09310000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
