Contribution to Conflict Resilience in the Libyan Energy Sector

intec contributes to the ‘Improvement of regulatory, institutional and technological conditions for the expansion of renewable energies at national and local level’.

intec is delighted to announce that we have been awarded a contract from GIZ to support the Libyan government in the field of energy economics.

The year-long violent conflict in Libya has led to a partial breakdown of public services, and the population cannot be supplied with reliable electricity, clean water or health services.

Due to this unreliable power supply situation, there is currently a window of opportunity to shift to renewables rather than continued dependency on fossil fuel resources. One of the aims of the ongoing project is the institutional strengthening of the Renewable Energy Authority of Libya (REAOL).

The assignment’s duration will be throughout 2023 (from January to December 2023) with a possible extension of a further 3 months.

In the scope of this assignment, intec has managed to secure a team of international and regional specialists with various expertise in the topic of energy economics, and drafting the necessary regulatory framework for the promotion of renewables.

The expected scope of work in the assignment includes the following:

  • Development of an economic and financial guidelines’ framework including PPA template(s), land lease agreements, innovative state guarantee mechanisms and models for Renewable Energy (RE) power plants;
  • Development of optimised feed-in tariff models and calculation methodology;
  • Development of additional electricity reimbursement options and transaction models in the absence of a regulatory authority in the electricity sector;
  • Development of financing/ownership models for public and private RE power plants; and,
  • Conducting activities such as capacity development and training needs’ assessments.
