        "description": "The UK MOD wishes to increase the capability of the future cars and van white fleet through a trial of innovative energy sources using renewable fuelled BEV chargers at various UK locations. The installed equipment, logistic support for the trial and any potential follow-on activity will be an experiment to gain experience of the use of such technology and inform any follow-on associated MT activity.\nThe chargers of the type must use renewal fuel sources and fast charge power outlet standards\nThe trial should enable:\na.\tTrial hydrogen/ammonia/methanol as fuel source for electricity generation.\nb.\tHandling of fuels. Use of hydrogen based fuel as a green fuel. Maintenance and training to be given on equipment as required.\nc.\tIn addition to the trial, the supplier will be required to provide suitable open access software to allow the monitoring of the remote stations for user support purposes and for diagnostic purposes.\nd.\tThere is no requirement to supply Government Furnished Assets under this contract. \nThe outcomes of the trial will be:\na. \tConclude if it offers capability options for MOD to deliver the aims of the next white fleet contract due in be let by 2024 or 2026 depending on existing contract extension.\nb.\tHandling and sourcing of renewable fuels. Provide an assessment of the use of the fuel as a green fuel, to understand the availability of it or the next best ‘green’ option. This assessment would also include future renewable sources.\nc. \tDemonstrate that it reduces the reliance on the at-risk electrical infrastructure on the MOD estate while maintaining or increasing the capability and availability of an asset. \nd. \tReferences and is consistent with HM Government, other Government Departments and MOD strategies where appropriate. Additional information: Delivery timescales will be finalised during development of the competition pack and SoR.  The following is the initial indication of the expected timescale for the delivery of the required output.  \na. \tInitial findings (end of Phase 1) by 4 weeks from date of delivery of equipment. \nb. \tFinal Report by 6 months from the date of delivery of the equipment."
