Electricity Supplier Contract Award

02/09/2022 - Electricity Supplier Contract Award

The Director for the Economy approved the outcome of the LASER (Local Authority South East Region) Energy Buying Consortium tender process and agreed to enter into a new contract with the most competitive utility company (or companies), as assessed by LASER, for the delivery of gas and electricity supplies to the Councils commencing from 1st October 2022.

 

The contract rates are commercially sensitive and are therefore excluded from the public domain until the contracts are secured and in place.

 

The overall financial effect on the Council's budget will necessitate additional budget provision and work on this is currently in hand by the Chief Financial Officer. A contingency sum has already been set aside within the Councils overall revenue budget to fund some of these additional costs.
