Project Description

The project focuses on (i) developing the enabling environment for investments in energy and social infrastructure, particularly renewable energy projects; and (ii) at the firm level, supporting the development of first mover projects in these niche markets.
Under the first component on enabling environment, the project will (i) Conduct a detailed legal review and process mapping assessing the regulatory framework governing renewable energy and captive power;(ii) Work with government to improve the legal framework for distributed generation, and to develop simplifications to existing processes; (iii) Once these recommendations are adopted, work with government to implement the streamlined regulations, ideally through several pilot projects.
The second component on firm level work includes (i) Demand mapping to identify potential investors and other stakeholders in civil society and government to raise awareness of captive power and identify potential projects; (ii) Pre-feasibility assessment of renewable power options for specific projects; (iii) Linking potential investors with potential offtakers for pilot projects.
