Sabien Technology has won a contract worth around £2.2m with Lincolnshire County Council (LCC), for the deployment of its M2G boiler optimisation technology into LCC's Estate.
The tender is a single supplier contract starting this month and is expected to be complete by September 2017.
LCC has developed an Eco-Schools framework in collaboration with the Carbon Trust to help schools to cut their energy costs and reduce carbon emissions. An integral part of the framework is for LCC to offer to its schools, at no charge, the installation of certain proven technologies. LCC has identified the installation of boiler optimisation within its schools estate as a technology that can deliver significant savings both financially and in carbon emission reductions.
The first phase includes 70 schools and is expected to deliver revenues of more than £500,000 to Sabien during the financial year ending 30 June 2014.
Senior sustainability officer for Lincolnshire County Council, Steve Golightly, said: 'We are delighted to award this contract to Sabien Technology Group and look forward to working together to deliver significant energy savings to the Lincolnshire schools estate. Sabien's experience in successfully delivering large scale rollouts of boiler load optimisation and the quality of their M2G offering were key factors in the contract award.'
Sabien's chief executive officer, Alan O'Brien, said: 'This is a key contract win for Sabien and is an illustration of the success we can achieve in the public sector... We are delighted to be working with Lincolnshire County Council.'
