Request for Information: HETA and EECA Energy-as-a-Service in Tanzania_Extended
The Health Electrification and Telecommunications Alliance (HETA) is Power Africa’s flagship initiative that supports health facility electrification in off-grid and on-grid areas where there is weak and unreliable electricity supply. As a global development alliance, HETA is a partnership between Power Africa, USAID health teams, and private sector energy companies working to improve energy access and digital connectivity at 10,000 health facilities across sub-Saharan Africa. HETA works to support the development and deployment of context-driven business models that can provide health facilities with long-term, reliable access to renewable energy.
The Empower East and Central Africa (EECA) program is Power Africa’s regional program designed to support countries in the region to end energy poverty, accelerate a carbon-free future, and boost energy sector investment and innovation. By the end of the project, EECA aims to deliver 1,200 MW, 1,500 km transmission lines, 150,000 productive use of energy devices sold, and 11.5 million on- and off-grid connections that provide 50 million people with access to new or improved energy from less carbon-intensive sources.
HETA and EECA have jointly prepared this RFI to advance both projects’ efforts to support Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) models in the off-grid solar PV market in Tanzania.Both HETA and EECA are interested in supporting EaaS models within the Tanzanian market. HETA is exploring the potential of private and public health facilities to serve as anchor clients for energy companies with opportunities for expanded economic and productive use. EECA’s focus is on households and larger commercial and industrial (C&I) clients. This request is intended to generate updated market intelligence that will inform each project’s strategy for its portfolio of work in Tanzania.
