Industrial Decarbonisation Market Mechanisms Regulatory Support 24-28

The Environment Agency’s Climate Change Trading and Regulatory Services Team (CCTRS) regulate and administer various UK Government and International climate change policies. We are seeking to put a suitable call off contract(s) for consultants with skills, knowledge and experience to support our operational activities over the next four years to maintain both our current operational activities and enable us to plan and deliver for the future. This will include roles across a range of consultant grades dependent on the depth of skills and knowledge required. This could include working with Government departments to inform policy development and ensuring its translation into effective operational activities. We are looking for consultants who have relevant understanding and experience across a range of sectors that are obligated under various Industrial Decarbonisation Market Mechanisms and regulations.
The regimes we currently regulate include:
• Climate Change Agreements (CCAs)
• Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS)
• UK Emissions Trading System (UKETS) for aviation and installations, including managing the UKETS Registry
• Fluorinated gases and ozone-depleting substances
• The Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA)

We are in the process of developing and extending our regulatory portfolio to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy efficiency. This includes:
• Extension and expansion of the current regimes
• Implementing the new Clean Heat Market Mechanism (CHMM)
• Supporting government departments in the consideration and design of future regimes.


There may be other regimes that we bring in during the lifetime of the contract.
