The preliminary design and planning model concluded that the capacity of the solar power park could be up to 150 MWp with storage at Soma substation and could be built in two phases. The first phase of this project is 50 MWp with a Battery Energy Storage System to meet (and not exceed) the national needs of energy consumption.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To this effect, The Government of the Gambia through MoPE and NAWEC intends to select an Independent Power Producer (IPP) under a Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) approach. The IPP will be responsible for the financing, construction and operation of the solar power park in the first phase of 50 MWp with a Battery Energy Storage System for 25 years (the Project).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In this regard, interested firms are invited to submit Applications to participate in this tender<strong>. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A complete set of Request for Qualification document can be purchased by interested firms upon payment of a <strong>non-refundable fee of USD 500 (Five Hundred US Dollars) to the National Water and Electricity Company, Project Implementation Unit Emporium III Building, Fajara.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Please contact<\/strong> <strong>Haddy Njie on email:\u00a0 <a href=\"mailto:hnjie@nawec.gm\">hnjie@nawec.gm<\/a><\/strong><strong>, and copy to <a href=\"mailto:mfsanyang@nawec.gm\">mfsanyang@nawec.gm<\/a>, <a href=\"mailto:asallah@nawec.gm\">asallah@nawec.gm<\/a><\/strong> for the account details and access to Request for Qualification document.<\/p>\n<p>Please tender the receipt and collect the Request for Qualification document from:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>National Water and Electricity Company (NAWEC)<\/p>\n<p>Project Implementation Unit<\/p>\n<p>Emporium III Building, 114 Kairaba Avenue, Fajara<\/p>\n<p>Banjul, The Gambia<\/p>\n<p>Telephone: +220 3664125\/ 9967791\/ 7009342<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Submission Deadline for Applications is the 14<sup>th<\/sup> November 2024<strong> at 12.00 noon Banjul Time.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 INVITATION TO SUBMIT [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":72,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,3,19],"tags":[31,71,10,85,20,38,108,23,237,83],"class_list":["post-1884","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-investor-relations","category-latest_news","category-electricity-press-releases-in-the-gambia","tag-electricity","tag-energy","tag-nawec","tag-power","tag-press-release","tag-public-announcement","tag-public-notice","tag-solar","tag-solar-project","tag-the-world-bank"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-05-15 15:09:45","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1884","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1884"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1884\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1890,"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1884\/revisions\/1890"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/72"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1884"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1884"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nawec.gm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1884"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
