By providing needs-based advice at the level of the Ministry of Energy (MIME) and the electricity utility (STEG), the project lays the foundations for private sector-led renewable energy (RE) power generation and accompanies the tender rounds of the concession regime for this purpose. The various actors are supported and accompanied in the planning, approval, construction, grid integration and operation of the first IPP projects.
