Hounslow Strategic Energy Partnership

The Opportunity

Following Cabinet approval in December 2025, the London Borough of Hounslow ("the Council") intends to commence a procurement mid-late 2027 to select a Strategic Energy Partner ("the Partner") for a Strategic Energy Partnership ("SEP"). The Partner will help unlock investment and deliver a diverse portfolio of energy projects and programmes to drive the borough's energy transformation, accelerate decarbonisation and support the Council's net zero ambitions for both its own operations and estate and the wider borough.

An estimated £500m+ pipeline of energy infrastructure has been identified to support the borough's regeneration, growth and decarbonisation agenda. This includes building retrofit, renewable energy generation, vehicle fleet decarbonisation and EV charging infrastructure.

The Council aims to structure a commercially viable partnership that can fund, develop and deliver this pipeline in support of the borough's economic, social and environmental objectives. A key role of the Partner will be to identify and develop further pipeline opportunities and innovative energy solutions.

The partnership is intended as a long-term collaboration with the Council, the partnership and the respective roles of the Council and the Partner will be shaped by the feedback received through this engagement.

Who Should Take Part

The Council would like to hear from organisations with experience in large-scale or place-based energy, infrastructure or related sectors, including those able to bring capital and delivery capability to the partnership. Consortia are welcome, as are smaller organisations interested in future supply chain opportunities.
