Barbados<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The\u00a0IDB\u00a0has issued a request for expressions of interest to help Barbados structure a competitive framework to procure \u201clarge\u201d capacity of utility-scale renewable energy and\/or storage.<\/p>\n

The winner will establish a procurement process that will include pre-qualification requirements and documents, tender documents and evaluation criteria, among other work.<\/p>\n

Specific tasks will include reviewing the Caribbean country\u2019s power sector legislation and 2019-30 national energy policy (BNEP) to identify legal and regulatory gaps, and provide recommendations and amendments, as well as determine the role and responsibilities of sector entities.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0BNEP\u00a0seeks to have renewable energies supply 100% of electricity, breaking dependence on imported fossil fuels which cover 90% of the nation\u2019s energy needs.<\/p>\n

Documents for the seven-month contract are due by April 5,\u00a0according to the procurement notice<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The work falls under an IDB-financed project to support the design of carbon-neutral strategies as part of the energy transition in Barbados.<\/p>\n

For its part, the Ministry of Energy and Business Development is accepting proposals to provide consultancy services to implement a change management strategy for BNEP. Information is available at\u00a0this link.<\/p>\n
