Technical requirements: Regarding provision of Technical Assistance services to the Danish Energy Agency Energy Country Programs and Projects.
The objective of the consultancy framework agreement is to provide specialist technical expertise on demand to ensure that the implementing agencies can access the most appropriate knowledge and skills and benefit from the expertise and experience of international and local know-how and resource base in the country programs and projects.
The specialist technical expertise is provided in such a manner that capacity of partner institutions in the programme countries is enhanced including through peer-to-peer learning modalities as relevant.
The Danish Energy Agency Country Programs will provide technical assistance combined with policy dialogue, in promotion of Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency — aiming for low carbon development and reduced CO2 emissions. The Program will build capacity with the current partner countries which include Ukraine, Turkey, Indonesia, Ethiopia, India, USA, UK and Germany and future partner countries to i) provide convincing input for governmental energy, climate/low carbon policies, strategies and plans and ii) deal with implementation aspects of EE and of high shares of variable RE in the national power and heating/cooling systems in a cost-efficient manner.
The programs in the current partner countries are ongoing but are at different phases of implementation. The experiences from ongoing activities in the programs, as well as the technical assistance provided by the Danish Energy Agency (DEA) will provide input for the future activities. The aim is to unite the earlier interventions with future activities utilis-ing the Danish experience with energy transition, while continuing the authority-to-authority element with the partner institutions in the current seven partner countries as well as future potential partner countries. There are a number of development engagements (DEs) in each current programme country that support the development objectives at country level and long-term goals at programme level.
