HydroGlen will combine the on-site generation of renewable energy (utilising wind and / or solar generation) and hydrogen production via electrolyser, with energy storage of compressed hydrogen and electric battery. Vehicle refuelling for both hydrogen and electric vehicles is included in the concept, and the overall objective is for the full farm electricity, transport and heating fuel to be displaced by the HydroGlen system. HydroGlen will provide a scalable and replicable model for farming and other rural communities to become self-reliant, low-carbon energy producers and exporters, generating 100%+ of their electricity, heating and transport fuel energy requirements from renewable sources. JHI has a total budget of GBP3.5m (including VAT) for the HydroGlen project. The feasibility of how the overall goals of the HydroGlen project can be achieved within the total budget of GBP3.5m (including VAT) will be discussed with bidders during dialogue. A more detailed description of the proposed procurement and JHI's overall objectives for the HydroGlen project are set out in the Initial Descriptive Document, which is available at the address set out at section 1.3. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 09330000, 09331000, 09332000, 24111600, 31121330, 31122100 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Estimated Value:** £3,500,000 - **Description:** JHI's overall ambition for the Hydroglen project is to demonstrate that it is possible to take an existing operational farm and make it 100% self-reliant based on a combination of on-site generated renewable energy, fuel cells and energy storage invo... ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (1) - **Award:** 024960-2024-JHI 295-1 (active) - Supplier(s): **Green Cat Contracting Ltd** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-FTS-120826` - Value: £3,500,000 † (exc.
