The Strategic Delivery Partner will work in collaboration with the Council, key stakeholders and organisations across the borough to bring about the transformation and decarbonisation of Oldham’s energy infrastructure. The Strategic Partnership will facilitate Oldham’s transformation to net zero whilst improving the wellbeing of Oldham's local communities.. The Council and Strategic Delivery Partner will work together to originate, define, develop, finance, deliver and operate a broad range of decarbonisation projects and initiatives across Oldham. The Strategic Delivery Partnership's key anchor project will be the Town Centre Heat Network including the existing St Mary’s scheme, which will serve as the foundation for a regional Heat Network. The Project is supported by, and is a key element of, the DESNZ / GMCA Local Net Zero Accelerator programme, and the Council has additionally secured an £8.87 million grant from the Green Heat Network Fund to support this anchor project, with plans for future expansion under the Advanced Zoning Programme. Building local community wealth, delivering social value, and fostering local economic growth is one of the Strategic Partnership aims, and the Council aims to support and, as best possible, facilitate timely business-to-business networking opportunities and market-capacity building opportunities linked to this Project opportunity. This is one of the Council’s primary objectives for its market engagement (referred to in Section 3.2 Objectives of the Council’s Market Engagement Document).
