Technical requirements: 81272413-Development and Implementation of Municipal Energy Efficiency Networks and Adapted Energy Management System in Algeria
On behalf of the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the project ‘Green Municipalities’ implemented by GIZ in Algeria is supporting the efforts of the Algerian Ministry of Interior, Local Communities, and Territory Planning (MICLAT) to promote the use of Renewable Energy (RE) and Energy Efficiency (EE) in Algerian municipalities.
Through this project GIZ will contribute by sharing German and international technical expertise on both, EE and RE. This includes:
— Development and implementation of action plans for RE and EE in four pilot municipalities (Bechar, Djelfa, Relizane, Souk-Ahras). (output1)
— Promoting the exchange of experience between municipalities, on energy management within regional networks (Adrar, Jijel, Mascara and Msila). (output 2)
— Development of selcted RE and EE technologies value chains and aiming at a better participation of local companies. (output 3)
— Development of a regulatory and normative framework for grid integration of small PV installations and incentives for the promotion of RE and EE technologies and services. (output 4).
The second output of the project ‘Green Municipalities’ looks into the improvement of conditions for energy and cost savings in four Algerian regions, with 30 participating municipalities. GIZ will support the partners at central level (MICLAT, APRUE(Energy Efficiency Agency)) and regional (Wilaya: Adrar, Msila, Jijel and Mascara) and local level (the 30 Municipalities, 7-8 Municipality in each of the 4 wilayas). More specifically, it will develop a set of tools and approaches to improve municipalities' capacity in setting up local energy management policy, understanding their energy consumption, identifying their energy saving potential, planning and implementing measures and monitoring their progress.
In the following tender, GIZ in Algeria is looking for an international expertise to support the local partners in development and implementation of two Municipal Energy Efficiency Networks as peer learning platforms. The expertise will also support local partners (MICLAT) in setting up a competence center on energy management, through the development and the implementation of various trainings of trainers for Energy Managers in Municipalities and the development of an energy management approach adapted to local municipalities. These actions should be supported by a communication strategy, including communication tools, events, applied games for educative purposes and study tours.
