The ETI is seeking an expression of interest for a dynamic modelling capability to support delivery of phase 2 of the project.
The ETI’s strategy work has identified electric resistive heating and heat-pumps in individual homes as potentially playing an important part in transitioning the UK to a low carbon future. These diverse heating sources will be deployed in a wide range of homes with a correspondingly diverse mix of thermal properties.
The project consists of 3 stages. During the first stage ETI resource will develop and prepare all necessary detail and data to enable the modelling to be undertaken in stage 2. The second stage will involve ETI working closely with a Dynamic Modelling Capability Consultancy partner (hereafter referred to as the modelling partner), procured through this Expression of Interest (EoI), who will provide the stage 2 modelling capability. The modelling partner is likely to be an organisation rather than an individual in order to pull on the breadth of skills required. The modelling partner will use the outputs developed by ETI during stage 1 to select and configure appropriate dynamic modelling tool/environment(s), carry out the modelling work and then provide ETI with the modelling outputs. ETI will then document and disseminate the modelling insights in the third and final stage and consider future activities looking at, for example, other technologies.
Note - this EoI is seeking a dynamic modelling capability to support delivery of initially stage 2 of this project therefore Stage 1 and 3 are not covered in this EoI. The modelling partner will not be required to participate during stage 1 and 3 unless otherwise agreed.
