Request for proposals for Supply And Installation of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Arrays & Battery Energy Storage Systems (Bess) At Lepjia, Motusa & Sumi Water Pumping Stations On Rotuma Island_Retender The project Enhancing Resilience to Climate Change of Maritime Islands of Fiji, through solar hybrid powered water supply system, aims to address water insecurity and energy dependence in Fijis remote maritime islands. The initiative, led by the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) in partnership with the Water Authority of Fiji (WAF), focuses on transitioning from diesel-powered water pumping systems to renewable energy solutions, primarily solar photovoltaic (PV) systems. This transition will enhance water security, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, reduce carbon emission and fossil fuel reliance, reduce operational costs, and improve the resilience of communities to climate-induced extreme weather events. The project funding will be from REnew Pacific. The project will be implemented across seven sites in Lakeba, Rotuma, and Vanua Balavu, benefiting approximately 4,900 residents. Key project components include final site assessments, procurement of renewable energy equipment, infrastructure installation, and comprehensive training on operations and maintenance (O&M) for local WAF staff. The project aligns with Fijis National Development Plan, Rural Electrification Policy, and Low Emission Development Strategy, supporting national goals for climate resilient infrastructure and emissions reduction and will help meet Fiji governments target to achieve 100% electricity access by 2036. By integrating solar power into water systems, the project will reduce operational costs, and strengthen institutional capacity for sustainable management of renewable energy assets.Additionally, the project emphasizes social inclusion, particularly of women and vulnerable groups, through participatory engagement and training.
