Strengthen Sector Planning and IPP Framework Activity Sample Clauses

Strengthen Sector Planning and IPP Framework Activity. The objective of this Activity is to strengthen Ghana’s power generation sector by providing a methodology to obtain new generation capacity at the lowest cost to meet the growing demand for electricity and expressed commitment to obtain future generation plants through private sector investment. Interventions under this Activity include: (A) Developing a least-cost integrated resource plan (“IRP”), installing an IRP system in Ghana, and providing associated capacity building for personnel in the energy sector. The IRP is a comprehensive plan for meeting forecasted annual peak energy demand (plus some established reserve margin) through a combination of supply-side and demand-side interventions over a specified period. This will allow the Government to conduct more effective strategic planning for the electricity grid and off grid systems and provide generation capacity from both traditional and renewable sources. The IRP will include a time-bound implementation plan which will make the plans for and the timing of the expansion of the power grid and additional generation capacity more transparent for stakeholders. (B) Developing a set of standard forms of contract for IPPs – such as agreements for power purchase, government support, escrow, and fuel supply. (C) Designing and providing core documents for IPP procurement processes (the “IPP Solicitation Plan”). The private sector promotion activities will cover both on-grid and off-grid options and will address the enabling environment for renewables. With respect to off-grid options, the Activity will examine market barriers to entry, recommend ways to strengthen opportunities for off-grid solutions, and design outreach approaches. (D) Providing strategic advisors to lead the process of sector planning, oversee the IRP development, and serve as transaction advisors on the first competitive IPP transaction(s), which will include renewable energy sources.
