AWARD OUTCOME
What happened
Derby Diocesan Academy Trust has established and subsequently modified a dynamic market for the physical supply of electricity, including invoicing and query-management services. Nine verified energy suppliers are recorded across two active award records, but the supplied detailed notice names only the three suppliers on award 1. This is an open supplier-admission mechanism, not evidence of an electricity supply contract being signed or started for a particular site or supplier.
Published outcomeA dynamic market has been established for electricity supply. Award 1 lists CORONA ENERGY RETAIL 1 LIMITED, SHELL ENERGY UK LIMITED and TOTALENERGIES GAS & POWER LIMITED; award 2 records six further verified suppliers. No award values, individual allocations, contract dates or signed contract evidence are supplied.
Market significanceThe arrangement creates an ongoing route to competition among admitted electricity suppliers: the notice says suppliers may apply for admission throughout the dynamic market and that competitive selection processes can be run among admitted suppliers.
