Accelerating Microgrid Deployment for Energy Access and Economic Development

As the Philippines moves toward decentralised energy systems, microgrids play a critical role in achieving full household electrification by 2028 and meeting national energy security goals. This RfQ seeks a supplier to assist the Department of Energy (DOE) in addressing key data and planning gaps that hinder the development and financing of renewable microgrids. The intervention will support the creation of a targeted, site-specific data collection framework and conduct field data gathering across 8-10 priority sites. The supplier will work closely with DOE to develop pre-feasibility studies, assess energy demand and site conditions, and identify viable and high-risk locations. Findings will inform DOE's microgrid auction strategy and support inclusive, evidence-based planning for rural electrification.
