This tender seeks qualified service providers to develop an Electricity Master Plan (EMP) and a Management Plan to Reduce Non-Revenue Electricity (MPNRE) for a local municipality. The project aims to enhance electricity management and reduce losses.
The Ba-Phalaborwa Local Municipality is inviting proposals for the development of an Electricity Master Plan (EMP) and a Management Plan to Reduce Non-Revenue Electricity (MPNRE). This initiative is crucial for optimizing electricity distribution and management within the municipality, addressing inefficiencies that lead to revenue loss. The selected service provider will be responsible for conducting a thorough analysis of the current electricity supply and demand, identifying key areas for improvement, and proposing actionable strategies to minimize non-revenue electricity.
The scope of work includes stakeholder engagement, data collection, and the formulation of a comprehensive EMP that aligns with national energy policies and local needs. The MPNRE will focus on identifying causes of non-revenue electricity, such as technical losses, theft, and billing inaccuracies, and will provide a roadmap for implementing solutions. The successful completion of these plans will not only enhance the municipality's operational efficiency but also contribute to sustainable energy practices, ultimately benefiting the local community and economy.
This tender is suitable for consulting firms and service providers specializing in energy management, electrical engineering, and municipal planning. Businesses with experience in developing energy strategies, conducting feasibility studies, and implementing efficiency programs will find this opportunity particularly relevant.
