BACKGROUND
\nI. Energy Fiji Limited (EFL) is private company which has the Fiji Government\u2019s
\nmandate to generate and supply power throughout Fiji wherever possible.
\nHistorically, the major sources of energy in Fiji have been the Monasavu Hydro
\nand diesel generators in various strategic locations.
\nII. The international shift to renewable energy for sustainable development goals
\nhas resulted in the genuine interest for renewable energy sources that are
\nfeasible and readily available for the future.
\nIII. Makosoi Resorts (Fiji) Limited is a 100% Fijian company dedicated to exploring,
\nidentifying and undertaking development projects that will alleviate poverty,
\nimprove living standards and providing sustainable economic opportunities for all
\nour people
\nIV. Makosoi Fiji has obtained an agreement with Energy Fiji Limited to generate and
\nsell power to EFL. To implement that agreement, Makosoi Fiji needs a Power
\nPurchase Agreement (PPA) from EFL.
\nV. The PPA shall immediately secure the release of major project funds for Makosoi
\nFiji to implement its energy project and other development and business activities
\nacross Fiji.
\nVI. Currently, EFL is focussed on only four islands in Fiji, namely, Viti Levu, Vanua
\nLevu, Ovalau and Taveuni. This leaves the other 300 plus islands to explore their
\nown energy sources. Apart from our other goals for our communities and families,
\nMakosoi Fiji is serious in its intentions to assist our people with clean, affordable
\nenergy throughout the year without disruptions.
\nVII. Renewable energy generation represents one of the most promising options to
\nlower greenhouse gas emissions while satisfying the increasing global demand
\nfor energy services. If implemented properly, renewable energy might contribute
\nsignificantly to social and economic development, ensure energy access, secure
\nenergy supply, as well as reduce negative impacts on the environment and public
\nhealth.
\nVIII. THE NALAMI LIGHT & POWER PROJECT
\nA vital component of our plan is to generate and sell surplus power to EFL as per our
\nagreement.
\nWe intend to construct our first solar power plant at Vitogo Bay, Lautoka, Fiji. It will have a
\n10MW capacity, located in a very strategic part of Viti Levu, which has an abundant supply of
\nshadowless sunlight. We have a tourism development lease over the area and it will be an
\nintegral element of our operations and development goals. This means that we shall supply<\/p>\n
our own power for all our business activities. We shall also assist our communities in their
\nenergy supply needs.
\nThis shall be scaled in phases up to 50MW, over a 5 – 10 year period in the Western
\nDivision.
\nAs stated in the project document, solar energy shall be captured through solar panels and
\nstored in batteries. Backstopping this shall be a panel of 2 \u2013 5MW diesel generators. Such a
\nconfiguration of technologies shall ensure that a constant supply of energy available for
\nconsumption upon demand. This eliminates the power shutdowns that characterize Fiji\u2019s
\ncurrent energy grids.
\nOBJECTIVES: The core objective of the assignment is to assess and ensure the feasibility
\nof the solar power plant and identify the best strategies and processes to achieve that in
\nterms of technologies, human resources, financing and management. renewable energy
\nsolution(s) for the char economic agents.
\nTASKS: a. Consult and work with Makosoi Fiji, Solar Central and other partners wherever
\nnecessary, to fully understand our goals and mission and to access all information needed
\nfor the successful completion of the exercise.
\nb. Gather all relevant and pertinent data and information on the solar power generation
\nproject.
\nc. Undertake initiatives, e.g. research, consultation, and field visits to gather information and
\ndevelop content.
\nd. Conduct a cost-benefit analysis to identify material costs, energy pricing, and other
\nnecessary exercises to assess the best scenarios for the most feasible way forward.
\ne. Recommend a reasonable tariff rate at which Makosoi Power could sell power to EFL.
\nf. Submit a report to Makosoi Resorts Fiji that will convince Government and EFL that we
\ncan deliver on our intentions to generate and sell power as declared through our NDA.
\ng. Convince EFL and Government that our partnership with EFL through power generation
\nand sales shall constitute a win-win situation for all parties, including the people of Fiji today
\nand in the future.
\nDELIVERABLES
\n\u2022 The finalised soft and hard versions of the contents and assessment report.
\nAn Executive Summary
\n\u2022 A PowerPoint presentation on the key findings
\nTIME FRAME. We would appreciate if this Assignment could be conducted during this
\nAugust 2024 time window. A final report should be submitted by September 6th, 2024.
\nREPORTING. The Report shall be sent to the Chairman and CEO of Makosoi Resorts (Fiji)
\nLimited via email and post as indicated below.
\nSUBMISSION OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS. All documents relevant and necessary for the
\nstudy shall be made available upon request. We shall appreciate the highest degree of
\nconfidentiality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
