Description

GMCA has been working with partners to identify appropriate sites for energy generation as part of our regional decarbonisation activities. In 2023, GMCA commissioned a feasibility study to assess opportunities across the GM Waste Estate and identified 10 suitable sites for rooftop and ground-mounted solar. This presents an opportunity for GM Waste to invest and reduce their onsite power demand. However, there is significantly more solar capacity potential than these sites require creating an opportunity for export into the wider public sector estate and GMCA is interested in co-investing or procuring this power for their own use. GMCA are seeking support from potential suppliers to progress this work through to delivery by providing Engineering Project Manager Support. The project is split into 2 contingent parts as the number of sites taken forward in Part 2 for investment will depend upon the outputs from Part 1.
