## Summary

The Department for International Development (DFID) has recently completed the award of the DFID 8264 Energy Security and Resource Efficiency Programme Phase 2, valued at £13,498,723. This contract targets foreign economic-aid-related services, focusing on enhancing energy access and cost reduction in both rural and urban areas of Somaliland. Key objectives include supporting existing mini-grid sustainability and establishing a renewable energy fund. The contract commenced on 14th September 2018 and is set to conclude on 31st August 2021, following the open procurement method which concluded on 10th May 2018.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the energy sector, particularly those specialising in renewable energy solutions, infrastructure development, and capacity building for regulatory functions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to compete, as the project aims to engage suppliers that can offer targeted technical assistance and innovative business proposals to enhance the energy landscape in Somaliland.

## Notice

The Overall Phase 2 objective is to deliver on the programme's aim of increasing access and reducing cost. In order to make progress toward this, we expect the supplier to support two key areas: 1. Support to the future sustainability of existing mini-grid sites, ensuring progress towards improved IPP professionalization enabling progress towards improved efficiency and more progressive tariffs, with a focus on understanding aspects of impact on a range of customers. This will include a package of targeted technical assistance to the MoEM to enable it to function as a regulator. 2. Support a renewable energy fund to deliver an expansion of sustainable renewable energy infrastructure, resulting in further improvements in access, including in productive services and with a view to understanding energy as a constraint to business growth. This will operate across Somaliland and will consider both rural and urban areas. This includes supporting grant recipients to develop appropriate quality business proposals and address the key lessons around potential grant recipient capacity identified in Phase 1.
