(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
PÖYRY PLC Press release 17 March 2010 at 4.30 p.m.
Pöyry has been awarded a consulting services contract for providing
institutional support to the Rural Energy Agency (REA) in Tanzania. The
assignment includes two phases of services with a total value of about EUR 1.2
million.
The first phase covers two years and will commence in March 2010. The overall
objective of the assignment is to provide technical assistance in developing and
building the technical and institutional capacity of the REA to efficiently and
effectively carry out its obligations.
The specific objectives of the first phase are to have the institutional set-up
required for implementation and monitoring of the Government's policy for rural
energy in place and to ensure that sustainable capacity within the REA to
execute its obligations in the short and long term has been developed. Pöyry
will assist the Rural Energy Board in soliciting proposals for external funding.
Assistance will also be provided in developing guidance and methods for
preparation of bid packages for rural energy projects. Criteria for subsidy
allocation and other strategic conditions for successful provision of modern
energy services in rural areas will be reviewed. Of particular importance is the
development of cooperation procedures between the REA and the regulator, EWURA.
Procedures for sequencing of licensing and subsidy awards will be elaborated
with EWURA.
Pöyry has extensive experience in the development of institutional frameworks
and policy for the promotion of rural energy activities in Western, Southern and
Eastern Africa and Asia.
