## Summary

The Department for International Development (DFID) has awarded the contract titled "DFID 8210 BRILHO - Energy Africa Mozambique" as part of an initiative aimed at enhancing energy access and supporting sustainable off-grid energy solutions in Mozambique. This award announcement was made on 10th May 2019, and the contract will operate from 20th May 2019 until 20th October 2024, with a total contract value of £22,800,000. The procurement process utilised a selective method through a competitive procedure with negotiation, and the classification falls under foreign economic-aid-related services.

This contract presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in clean energy, particularly those focused on off-grid solutions. Companies with expertise in innovative energy provision, logistics, and rural outreach will be well-suited to participate, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Engaging in this market could not only enable the suppliers to expand their operations but also contribute to a broader goal of providing affordable and sustainable energy to millions in Mozambique.

## Notice

The key objectives of BRILHO are to: 1. increase energy access through innovative private sector provision of, and investment in, offgrid clean energy. 2. build a market of off-grid energy companies (across the three target technologies) able to operate on a sustainable basis. The private sector companies should ultimately have the potential to attract new sources of finance and exponentially grow their businesses to provide cheaper cleaner energy solutions to millions more off-grid Mozambicans. 3. build the supporting environment for successful off-grid energy companies including support to logistics and mobile money partners, skills training and increasing rural awareness of offgrid energy solutions. 4. support Government of Mozambique (GoM) to develop an off-grid strategy, policy and regulatory environment that embeds the market approach into government systems. This will give clarity and confidence to the off-grid market and investors, including for micro- and minigrid companies, and will include appropriate certification, licencing and electricity tariff requirements.
