About

North Tyneside Council awarded a contract to Connected Energy Limited for the supply of energy battery storage units as part of the EV076 Operational Depot Accommodation Project, specifically for the Killingworth Sustainable Retrofit Project.

The project involves refurbishment and replacement of existing office accommodation, workshop, welfare, and other facilities to future-proof depot operations, with a focus on energy efficiency and functionality.

The contract value was £300,000.

The battery storage units are for Block F Vehicle Maintenance Workshop Refurbishment, where North Tyneside Council acts as Principal Contractor and the supplier as Sub-Contractor.

Works must consider ongoing workshop operations, requiring phasing and innovative delivery to minimize disruption, with out-of-hours and weekend work necessary.

The package is anticipated to be completed in 6 weeks, with the whole scheme provisionally scheduled from 01/04/2023 to 31/05/2023.
