Supply and Delivery of Solar PV System Equipment and Accessories

Background: UN-Habitat is implementing a project in Zimbabwe: “Harare Sustainable City Initiatives: Promoting Carbon Neutral Urban Basic Services and Energy Efficient Built Environment” in Zimbabwe. The project aims at enhancing the overall well-being, health, and security conditions of Zimbabwe citizens through access to better urban basic services from sustainable solid waste management and the use of renewable energy systems; the project will also create systems for access to affordable carbon-neutral building materials. This will be achieved through improved municipal solid waste management operations, energy and resource recovery, clean energy generation and promotion of climate-responsive building material production. The project will enhance energy access to targeted communities by providing a reliable and renewable energy supply generated from locally available resources. One of the project outputs is to address the energy shortage in low-income urban communities by demonstrating the productive use of renewable energy solutions by implementing multifunctional clean energy centres in four locations. The centre, which will be powered by renewable solar electricity, will have several activities, including capacity-building and income-generating activities. Based on this, UN Habitat is buiding 5 Multifunctional Clean Energy centers that should be powered wholly by Solar Energy. OBJECTIVE: UN-Habitat is looking for suppliers for the Supply and Delivery of Solar PV equipment and accessories for power generation at its multifunctional clean energy demonstration site in Harare, Zimbabwe. SCOPE OF WORKS: The items to be supplied will include solar panels,invertors,batteries etc. Further details will be provided when solicitation document is launched.
