- Mauritania and the African Development Bank have issued an expression of interest for the Desert-To-Power Regional Technical Assistance Project for the Sahel (ReTAPS) – for Green Mini-Grids under PROREV.
The ECOWAS Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (ECREEE), with funding from the African Development Bank (AfDB), invites consulting firms to provide technical assistance to the Government of Mauritania under the PROREV Project. The project aims to develop Green Mini-Grids to increase electricity access in rural localities, aligned with Mauritania’s renewable energy targets and the AfDB Desert-to-Power Initiative.
The assignment falls under the Desert-to-Power Regional Technical Assistance Project for the Sahel (ReTAPS), which seeks to create an enabling environment for solar energy projects and mobilize private sector investment in both on-grid and mini-grid sectors.
The services included under this project consist of technical assistance to support the electrification of priority rural localities in Mauritania through the development of green mini grids(solar PV or hybrid solutions), including feasibility analysis, preparation of project documents and financial models, over an estimated period of 6 months
