The assignment covers the design, adoption and implementation of a Green Mining Energy Framework across mining licensing, environmental permitting and environmental and social impact assessment processes. It is intended to reduce future reliance on diesel power and support lower-emission mining investment. Expected work includes diagnosing current arrangements, developing design options, preparing the framework and supporting government guidance, and producing implementation and compliance materials. These materials will include templates, monitoring tools and capacity-building support. Delivery is in Madagascar. The procurement covers energy, mining, electrical, research and development, consultancy and environmental services. The process reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure above the applicable threshold. The tender deadline set by the buyer is 22 September 2026 at 17:00 British Summer Time.

The opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The procurement is for services and concerns work in Madagascar. The published requirement focuses on renewable integration in mining permits, environmental permitting and environmental and social impact assessment processes, with supporting implementation and compliance activity. This opportunity suits consultancies and advisory teams combining renewable-energy expertise with mining-sector, environmental-regulation and public-sector policy experience. Strong candidates will be able to assess existing licensing and permitting arrangements, develop practical policy and regulatory options, and translate them into a Green Mining Energy Framework that government can adopt. They should also be able to prepare guidance, compliance templates and monitoring tools, and provide capacity-building support to public officials. Experience linking energy requirements to mining licences, environmental permits and environmental and social impact assessment processes would be directly relevant. The work also favours suppliers able to support implementation, compliance monitoring and lower-emission mining development in Madagascar, including teams capable of working with English and French submission materials. ## Notice La description de l'appel d'offres ainsi que les documents de soumission sont egalement disponibles en francais. Veuillez consulter les pieces jointes pour plus d'informations. Following the reopening of mining permits in 2026, Madagascar has an opportunity to shape how new mining investments source power. While mining and environmental regulations are in place, renewable energy integration is not yet embedded within licensing and permitting requirements. The assignment will support the Government of Madagascar to design, adopt and implement a Green Mining Energy Framework that embeds renewable energy requirements into mining licensing, environmental permitting and ESIA processes. Key outputs include a diagnostic and design options package, a Green Mining Energy Framework and supporting guidance for government adoption, and an implementation and compliance package with templates, monitoring tools and capacity-building support. The project aims to reduce future diesel dependence in the mining sector and support lower-emission mining development in Madagascar.
