Electricity Supply Extensions (large sites)
In July 2024, the Environment and
Sustainability Committee approved plans to create a 'Sleeved Pool'
electricity contract. This arrangement would enable local renewable
energy producers—including the council itself—to supply
zero-carbon electricity directly to the council and other
customers. The new system was originally set to start in April
2025. However, challenges with procurement regulations have made it
necessary to take a different approach, which has delayed its
implementation. To address this, the committee approved in December
2024 an extension to the current electricity supply contracts,
giving more time to put the new plan into place.
