## Description
Peterborough Limited’s Energy Services Team are responsible for managing, maintaining and co-ordinating Peterborough City Council’s (PCC) solar photovoltaic (PV) assets.  Peterborough Limited (PL) along with a group of contractors have managed the portfolio since PCC took ownership of the portfolio in November 2021 and PL are now tendering for contractors to deliver the maintenance and service provision for the coming 2-4 years. PL is a private limited company wholly owned by PCC.
1.1 PURPOSE
PCC own 7653 domestic solar PV assets of differing sizes (between 0.75 and 4 kWp [9.75, 9.8 and 20.3 kWp in Boston]) and a further 64 corporate solar PV assets of differing sizes (between 6 and 200 kWp), all contributing to PCC’s net zero target and to its ongoing maintenance needs via FiT. The solar PV systems are remotely monitored and managed by PL .
With the support of the contractor(s) we aim to maintain the solar PV assets when an issue arises, usually identified by our alerts system, sometimes identified by the resident.
We expect the contractor(s) to implement industry best practice, and operate to a Quality Management System such as ISO 9001:2015 and be Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS certified and working towards the MCS Standard
1.2 SCOPE
The contractor(s) will be responsible for contacting residents/nominated contacts to book in a site visit, conducting a ‘health check’ on the solar PV system whilst at site and undertaking approved works to remedy identified issues & producing a job report (that meets a set of requirements including images where appropriate).  Refer to Appendix D for the requirements of the health check.
The contractor(s) may get requests from residents/nominated contacts to complete actions on behalf of PL these should be immediately referred to PL and not acted upon without express permission or instruction from PL.
*LOT C – There may be a requirement to conduct an annual inspection regime on our 64 corporate sites, this would need to cover as a minimum the Intermediate Inspection as detailed in Appendix A with a possibility of a more in-depth inspection meeting the requirements of the Full Inspection on the same Appendix A.  It will be on the sole discretion of PL of the type of inspection (i.e. Intermediate or Full) that the contractor will be required to undertake.
