COP26 - Visions for a Net-Zero Future

Tender description

Visions for a Net Zero Future is a project led by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and aims to contribute to a successful UK Presidency of COP26. This project will develop a series of country/regional-specific Visions that bring to life the scientific evidence on different global pathways to a net zero future, exploring science and innovation solutions and the co-benefits and trade-offs. These Visions will be developed in virtual workshops by regional stakeholders, including technical and non-technical. These workshops will outline the scientific and engineering evidence and opportunities in different future scenarios and involve discussions on the different perspectives, priorities and trade-offs, with the aim of developing a collective Vision of the future. These Visions will be translated into high-impact, engaging and creative visualisations to support engagement ahead of, and at, COP26. Lot 1: This invitation to Tender (ITT) is seeking a supplier to deliver the alpha phase (prototyping and testing) of the Energy Data Visibility Project (EDVP). The EDVP aims to develop a service that: •Increases the visibility of energy system metadata (a description of the attributes of a dataset), by listing metadata centrally, to an agreed standard; •Provides a mechanism for missing/closed data to be requested by energy system participants; •Provides direct access to data that is open to the user; •Allows data users to provide feedback on the quality of data and; •Collects service analytics
