Award criteria

Price, Climate and environment

How the award is decided

Under this criterium the price element will be assessed., The Public Procurement Act § 5b states that public procurements should weight climate and environmental considerations with a minimum of 30%. This is done through award criteria. If there is a better climate or environmental benefit, the award of contract can be replaced or combined with climate and environmental requirements. The award of climate and environmental considerations (30 %) is not relevant in this contract and is replaced by the requirements for materials and passenger transport, see the requirement specifications in C chapter and under respective processes for the factory concrete. Justification: Based on emission factors given in VegLCA and previously reported amounts on consumption, steel (railings) contributes with 35%, concrete 12% and passenger transport 13% of the total emissions of 337 tonnes CO2-ekv. Despite the fact that steel makes up the largest share of the total emissions, it is considered as limited possibilities for reduction - especially compared to other major emission factors - through competition or requirements in this contract. Concrete cast on site is the second largest emission factor in accordance with the result in VegLCA. As concrete in low carbone class 40 is available in the market for the contract, minimum requirements can be made as a part of the tender documentation. This will ensure that the contract will get concrete delivered with the lowest possible emissions, based on what is available in the market for the notice. Such a requirement will ensure that the contract will have good climate effect by reducing the climate gas footprint from the second largest climate driver in the contract by 40% (16.4 tonne co2-ekv.), compared with industry references. If the project instead chooses to premiere the use of low carbon concrete through the award criteria, the same climate gas reduction cannot be guaranteed. It is therefore considered better to set requirements for the use of low carbon concrete as this will give the lowest greenhouse gas emissions based on the available materials in the market at the time of the notice. Passenger transport makes up 13% of the total emissions, and is the second largest contributor to CO2 emissions. A minimum requirement will ensure that a large number of light vehicles offered and used are emission free. An award criteria will award zero emissions, but price or other award criteria could nevertheless lead to the contract being awarded to a supplier who offers fossil-driven vehicles. The market for emission free light vehicles is considered to be sufficiently mature and there is an available charging infrastructure and the necessary capacity. By requiring 90% of driven km to be emission free, the contract achieves a further reduction of 37 tonne of CO2-ekv. See annex 2026-11-04 Award of Climate and Environment new bridge contract for detailed justification for choosing the requirements.
