Benin - Selection of IPP Consultant and IPP Transaction Advisor

In order to increase the effective installed generating capacity in Benin, a program has been established to attract the participation of Independent Power Producers (IPPs) to develop, design, construct, operate and maintain solar photovoltaic (PV) generation facilities in the country. The program includes the development of an IPP institutional framework and standard forms of contract as well as the execution of a competitive bidding process for GoB.

The selected Consultant will structure and lead the transaction process for GoB as Transaction Advisor. The solar PV sites are located in Natitingou (5 MW), Parakou (15 MW), Djougou (10 MW) and Bohicon (15 MW).

The project is part of the "Multinational Project for the Interconnection of the Electrical Networks of the Nile Equatorial Lake Countries" (Projet multinational d'interconnexion des réseaux électriques des pays des lacs équatoriaux du Nil (PMIREL-PLEN) that aims at establishing a 220 kV interconnection between Ruzizi III Substation at Kamanyola (D.R. Congo) and the Rubirizi Substation in Burundi to evacuate the Burundian part of the energy produced by the future 145 MW Ruzizi III Hydropower Plant. The project covers the following technical measures:

construction of a 220 kV single-circuit line of 80 km length
construction of a total of 8 km of 110 kV double-circuit lines
construction of a 30 kV double-circuit line
construction of a new 220/110/30 kV substation at Rubirizi (2 autotransformers 220/110/30 kV, 48/64/80 MVA with a 18/24/30 MVA tertiary winding)
extension of the 110 kV Substation "RN1" to accommodate the connection of the new 220/110 kV substation

Gambia - Environmental services for Solar PV development

The Republic of Gambia, through the National Water and Electricity Company Limited- NAWEC (the Client), is seeking the development of Solar PV power generation in the country. The objective of the assignment is to assess the technical viability of constructing solar PV power generation in Gambia. The study includes three models: EPC 20 MW at Jambur, IPP 120 - 130 MW at Soma and separate Battery Energy Storage Systems (grid connected) at Brikama. Furthermore, bidding documents are prepared for the grid connected PV + BESS at Jambur, including grid connection based on WB's standard procurement documents.

intec's services

A range of environmental services were carried out by intec, including the following:

Project inception and implementation planning
Solar Resource Assessment, Solar Data and Meteorological Conditions
Site selection and studies for grid connected photovoltaic and battery energy storage (PV + BESS)
Options for integration into existing power system
Analysis of global environmental benefits and performance of legal due diligence
Preliminary analysis of environmental and social impacts
Training and capacity strengthening program
The study emphasises on the carbon gains (avoided carbon emissions) from electricity generation by solar PV from different generation models. For each of them, identification and assessment of relevant environmental and social impacts was carried out in view of identifying the most sustainable option.

(The above services were provided in the framework of the project Feasibility Study for Solar PV Development - Jambur, EPC 20 MW and Soma, IPP 120 - 130 MW)
