Staffordshire County Council (SCC) operates as both a timber merchant and as a wood chip fuel producer/trader which supplies wood chip fuel to a range of biomass heat installations across the county. This operation receives bulk loads of round logs to its timber yard at Heatley Hall Farm, Rugeley, which are stored until suitable for chipping on site. The chips are warehoused in specially constructed shelters on site for further drying until required for delivery to our biomass heat installations on an as-needed basis. The Council also receives and distributes wood chip from external sources. This procurement is for the supply of services to SCC to assist our activity as timber merchant and as a wood chip fuel producer/trader which supplies wood chip fuel. This framework agreement consists of two Lots: Lot 1: The supply and haulage of round timber to our depot at Heatley Hall Farm. This shall consist of mixed conifer or hardwood in lengths of 2.5-2.9 metres and 0.07-0.5 metre diameter. Lot 2: The supply and haulage of wood chip fuel meeting G50/W30 specification or similar to Heatley Hall Farm, to comply with our Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) obligations The maximum expected annual volume approximates to 1,500 tonnes of Round Timber and 500 tonnes of Wood Chip.
