## Summary

The Department for International Development (DFID) has initiated a tender for the project titled "DFID 8264 Energy, Security and Resource Efficiency in Somaliland Phase 2," aimed at enhancing energy security and resource efficiency in Somaliland. This public procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 3rd May 2018. The project falls under the category of foreign economic-aid-related services and is valued at £13,500,000. It will be conducted via an open procedure, allowing various suppliers to bid for the opportunity to contribute to this significant initiative in the region.

This tender presents a vital opportunity for businesses specialising in energy services, resource management, and development aid consultancy. Companies focusing on sustainable energy solutions and those with experience in working with governmental and non-governmental organisations in developing regions will find this procurement particularly suitable. The focus on diversifying energy sources and creating resilient infrastructure opens doors for SMEs and voluntary community sector enterprises eager to engage in impactful projects that support economic development and poverty reduction in Somaliland.

## Notice

The UK is drawing lessons from the ESRES pilot phase which is exploring ways to improve energy security and promote resource efficiency in Somaliland. This will involve working alongside the Government, private sector and other development partners in the energy sector in Somaliland. It aims to support Somaliland in diversifying its energy mix, enhancing resilience, and facilitating an enabling institutional and regulatory environment for the expansion of access to electricity. ESRES is predicated on the impact that cheap and affordable power can have on economic development and poverty reduction.
