Coverage: 43 active published awards; 40 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Price reduction compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
The National Epitaxy Facility (NEF) at the University of Sheffield is a nationally important supplier of semiconductor materials for research and development in Universities and industry across the UK. A reliable supply of high purity hydrogen is key to the work of the NEF and our other research groups in semiconductor production. Our existing PEM-based hydrogen generation system is approaching end of life and a replacement system is required. Our hydrogen supply operates at 30 bar and a peak mass flow rate of approximately 25kg per day, with an average daily consumption of 12kg per day. Our hydrogen system feeds purifiers that ideally require 99.999% purity to minimise maintenance costs and ensure high purity feed to our reactors. We are looking for a replacement hydrogen generator that can meet our existing demand in the existing footprint, with a reliable, sustainable and cost effective technology. Reliability of supply is a key factor, and hence an exemplary after sales service is a must.
