II.2.4) Description of the procurement
The Council have been awarded a grant from the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Pilot fund to develop a Solar PV Canopy and connection infrastructure at Drummond Street Car Park. S65 1HP. This also requires private sector investment (minimum £330,000 ex. vat) to install and run an EV Charging concession as part of the project.
Drummond Street Car Park is a 240-space pay-and-display surface car park well used by commuters and shoppers. It is situated on the edge of Rotherham Town Centre, across the road from the central markets complex and has approximately 2000 households within a ten-minute walk time. The main town taxi rank is conveniently accessible from the car park and is approximately 200m away, as is the A630 with an annual average daily flow of 35,158 vehicles (2023).
An initial Request for Information (RFI) related to this project was issued in March 2023 and the information provided was extremely helpful. More recently a second RFI was issued for further clarification from the market (Notice reference 2024/S 000-040487).
The fixed budget for the Design & Build of the Solar PV Canopy is £1,050,000 excluding VAT.
Supplier minimum contribution for EV Infrastructure is £330,000 excluding VAT.
EV Charging revenue estimate for the proposed 15 year period is £4.158M excluding VAT.
Total contract value is £5.208M excluding VAT, £6.250M inclusive of VAT.
The contract value has been calculated by reference to the potential revenue that the Council considers could be collected by the Concessionaire through the provision of the Services for the entire contract duration. However, the value of the Contract is ultimately dependent on the vagaries of the market and the above income figure does not carry any guarantee of value or volume of business over the contract term.
