In plain English
The UK Government wants a consultant or team to help Uganda's electricity regulator open up the market for small-to-medium businesses and industries to generate their own renewable energy (solar, wind, etc.). The work involves studying market demand, reviewing regulations, and recommending changes to make it easier for companies to invest in captive renewable energy systems.
What the buyer wants
• Conduct market sizing research on commercial and industrial captive renewable energy demand in Uganda • Review Uganda's current regulatory framework and compare it to international best practice • Identify barriers to investment and regulatory gaps preventing C&I renewable adoption • Develop a mid-tier regulatory framework and updated guidance for the Electricity Regulatory Authority • Create standardised commercial documentation and financing pathways to improve project bankability • Work with ERA, the Ministry of Energy, and three electricity distributors to co-design solutions
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: This is an international development consultancy contract for energy policy and regulatory reform in Uganda. It is not a trade or hands-on technical service contract. It will only suit consultancies, think-tanks, engineering firms with policy experience, or development organisations with specific expertise in African energy regulation and renewable energy markets. General builders, electricians, cleaners, or small local tradespeople will be completely out of scope.
Always check the tender documents.
