Request for Proposal (RFP) Creative Support and Execution of a Public Awareness Campaign
In 2013 the Government of The Bahamas published its National Energy Policy 2013 – 2033(NEP). A key objective of the NEP is to increase the sustainable renewable energy sources into the generation mix in The Bahamas. In this regard, the NEP aims to promote the use of renewable energy sources, energy conservation and energy efficiency in the generation, distribution and consumption of electricity throughout the country by residents, businesses and government. In 2015, by passage of the new Electricity Act 2015 (EA), the Utilities Regulation and Competition Authority, (URCA) became the regulator for the electricity sector and is mandated to support the NEP and to promote, develop and or approve renewable energy projects for residential, government businesses and utility-scale programmes. The EA mandates that as a regulator, URCA regulates the sector in accordance with the underpinning principles of the NE.
In furtherance of its obligations under the EA, URCA is seeking to contract a suitably qualified and experienced consultant/firm to undertake work associated with the creative interpretation, design and management of URCA’s Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation Public Awareness Campaign, (the PAC). The purpose of this RFP is to solicit competitive proposals for the consultancy.
URCA advises that time is of the essence for the completion of this project, therefore, interested parties are requested to submit a proposal to URCA for the work to be carried out in accordance with this RFP and TOR on or before 24 January 2020. The RFP document can be downloaded here or by writing to info@urcabahamas.bs.
The deadline for submission is 4:00 PM 24 January 2020
