Decarbonisation – Boiler Replacement

Description

The objective of the PME is to gain market insight for the procurement of a Principal Contractor to deliver the Boiler replacement – Decarbonisation upgrade project. There is a single Contracting Authority for the scheme in Royal Armouries. There are no external organisations involved within the procurement of this scheme. Information in relation to the Boilers is available within Appendix A. ROYAL ARMOURIES are looking to gather feedback on which technologies are available to develop the project to take from the start of RIBA 2 through to RIBA 7. Outcomes: Royal Armouries wish to embark on a decarbonisation project to replace the existing 3 Boilers, with a new more energy efficient technology. The project forms the first step in the development of the Royal Armouries sites to meet their Net Zero targets. The Hot Water Heating Boilers are currently aged, manufactured in 1995, installed at Royal Armouries, Leeds during the initial build of the site, the Boilers use natural gas to provide heating and hot water. This project will form part of a larger decarbonisation plan for the Royal Armouries estate, the improvements to infrastructure, reliability and energy savings will provide much needed improvements to the Museum. The energy savings both in cost and CO2 generation, will allow for further developments to continue to improve the Museum. This will ensure that the Museum continues to provide its historical and cultural impact whilst maintaining a site that Visitors will want to utilise for not only the educational history that the Museum provides but also allow for increasing specialist events and exhibitions such as Gladiators: Heroes of the Colosseum. This Project shall provide the first major project in the Royal Armouries decarbonisation strategy.
