1. BACKGROUND
KEFFESO Host Communities Development Trust (KHCDT) is seeking proposals from qualified firms or consortia to conduct an assessment study on access to power in its 11 riverine rural communities. These communities currently experience very limited access to electricity, due to their remote locations, poor transportation infrastructure and susceptibility to flooding which stifles socio-economic development. Leveraging their proximity to the ocean and abundant natural resources, this RFP seeks to engage qualified consultancies or consultants to explore and design multiple power generation options, including gas, water, and ocean current induced power systems, alongside solar and hybrid systems. This study will provide critical insights into current access levels, barriers to electrification, community energy needs, community members’ willingness-to-pay attitude and potential solutions for sustainable and inclusive energy availability and access in this geographically challenging region.
