Feasibility Study for renewable energy

Under the Greening Government Commitments, DVLA has an obligation to reduce its Carbon footprint which can potentially be achieved by a combination of using energy more efficiently and sourcing energy from green or renewable sources.

In addition to environmental commitments, DVLA also has an obligation to identify areas to save money. Given the rising costs in grid-supplied mains electricity and natural gas, it is necessary to investigate options for reducing or fixing energy costs for a defined period of time.

Due to the above environmental and cost obligations, DVLA is seeking a feasibility study (RIBA stage 2) into renewable energy generation and storage, both on-site and off-site. The study is to include the generation of both electrical energy and heat.
