Managing Entity for a Financing Program aiming at the promotion of private initiatives in green mini-grids improving access to electricity in Kenya

Agence française de développement

AFD and DFID are jointly working on a Programme in Kenya aiming at promoting private initiatives in green mini-grids improving access to electricity. This Green mini-grid Programme will make almost 30 000 000 GBP (about 40 000 000 EUR) available for capital support to projects and/or technical assistance and market development activities.
The implementation of this Programme will need the Operator to act as a Managing Entity that will be the main responsible party in the management of the GMG Programme, in collaboration with AFD. Its tasks will be in particular:
— Contribute to the identification and selection of the best viable GMG projects seeking some form of capital support and technical assistance;
— Assist Project Sponsors;
— Allocate and disburse grants from this programme to eligible projects;
— Ensure the Monitoring and Evaluation of the program;
— Ensure articulation with other GMG initiatives from local public authorities, other donors, other international financial institutions;
— Ensure a feedback and coordination with public authorities on the operational results and lessons learnt from this experience.
For this purpose, the Operator is expected to set up a team including the following expertise:
i) a full time Team Leader with extensive experience of energy project management,
ii) a full time Administrative Officer,
iii) key experts (Legal, Financial, Environmental and Social, Communication).
