Web page editing software development services. To procure a contractor to set up and manage the RHI Biomass Suppliers List until 2016 at latest. The key aim of the RHI Biomass Suppliers List is to create a single list of biomass suppliers for both domestic and commercial consumers. This will provide a mechanism for RHI participants to know they are buying from a sustainable source which meets regulations. All domestic RHI participants will be required to source their biomass from suppliers on the list. The RHI Biomass Suppliers List will consist of suppliers of solid biomass fuel who have demonstrated that their stock complies with the RHI sustainability criteria. The criteria are: 1) Greenhouse gas emissions criteria - 60% saving on the EU fossil fuel average (in force from March 2014), and 2) Land criteria - expected to be based on UK Timber Procurement Policy (in force no later than April 2015, in line with similar standards being introduced to the Renewables Obligation for electricity generation). Suppliers of biomass who wish to be on the list will be required to submit data for audit by the list manager. Suppliers who successfully register on the RHI Biomass Suppliers List will be permitted to label their compliant products with a statement to illustrate that this fuel complies with RHI sustainability criteria. Project sub-objectives a) To create a simple, practical yet robust method of demonstrating that the supplier has met the RHI sustainability requirements; b) To create a low cost way of domestic and non-domestic RHI participants, including self-suppliers of woody biomass, to demonstrate that they meet the biomass sustainability standards. For the majority of consumers the administrative burden of using the RHI Biomass Supplier List should be significantly less than having to report independently against the sustainability requirements; c) To embed evaluation of biomass suppliers, supply chains and the wider environmental impact of the RHI Biomass Supplier List into the RHI end-to-end journey, through reporting to the DECC evaluation team.Awards
