Renewable Energy Procurement Capacity Building, India

South Asia

June 8, 2023

The U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) sponsored the Global Procurement Initiative: Interstate Clean Energy Procurement Program for India. This program consists of multiple activities, including two (2) separate and distinct workshops hosted in New Delhi, India, that trains participants on clean energy procurement practices.

The workshops are designed to investigate how to integrate best-value determinations and international best practices in public procurement for India’s clean energy sector. The training specifically explores value-based procurement mechanisms designed to achieve optimal results from public procurements in the energy sector using advanced value and quality-based procurement methods. The aim of the workshops is to improve technical capacity in developing technical specifications, utilizing life-cycle cost analysis (“LCCA”), and creating non-price criteria for evaluation factors. This Program will also provide a platform for cross-border knowledge sharing in the procurement of renewable energy.

K&M was engaged by the Business Council for International Understanding (BCIU) to develop and deliver USTDA-funded training sessions on international procurement best practices and practices to achieve value for money in the clean energy sector.

The K&M team provided input on agenda development, developed training presentations, and content, participated in an industry roundtable with private sector representatives, and delivered training sessions to public sector energy sector representatives from 10 Indian states.

K&M traveled to New Delhi to deliver training sessions on the role of new energy technologies, best value structures and processes, developments and lessons learned in renewable energy tenders, ensuring bankability of energy projects, financial and commercial considerations for renewable energy PPAs, and considerations for value management during tendering and implementation.
