Project Preparation in Africa for Renewable Energy: Essential Elements for Project Development<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

A South Africa Event on 2016-01-26 08:30:00<\/i><\/p>\n

Developing projects in sectors, like energy, transportation, other infrastructure, industrial, public services (health and education), etc., is not just a technical task,\u00a0but involves a full range of elements to develop a sustainable business model. This business model takes into account ownership structure, communities, understanding requirements for funding, capacity, technology, financial models, environmental and market analysis, etc. Project developers, and their stakeholders, regularly find a heavier burden to bring all the necessary pieces together for projects in Africa. Many project developers find that having the technical capacity and\/or connections is not sufficient to develop a bankable project. The\u00a0Project Preparation\u00a0in Africa for Renewable Energy seminar is an introduction to the project development process, walking participant through the key elements, activities, and processes. It is particularly helpful for projects that are just an idea or in the early stages. Participants also receive tools and resources.\u00a0 Project Preparation, and a five-day workshop, are part of a full project development support program including incubation, funding, technical, partnerships, and more. They are designed to get project developers off to the right start and through the project development cycle. The programs are operated with local collaborators, e.g.\u00a0Industrial Development Corporation\u00a0(IDC is\u00a0an African development bank based in South Africa), The Innovation Hub, Small and Medium Enterprise Development Agency of Nigeria\u00a0(SMEDAN is a federal agency in Nigeria), and commercial banks, to address the severe gaps in the project development space and in the pipeline of bankable projects on the Continent. The\u00a0Project Preparation\u00a0seminar provides a broad understanding of project development while the five-day workshop provides an in-depth methodology, tools, and resources which participant can use over and over again. Therefore, the five-day workshop is a natural follow-up to the Project Preparation seminar. The\u00a0Project Preparation\u00a0seminar, and the five-day workshop, is suitable for government agencies, private sector, communities, developers, technical teams, and technical support agencies. The workshop, and other options, is also excellent for building holistic capacity in organizations that develop and\/or support projects in Africa. Seminar Modules The following are the modules in\u00a0Project Preparation: Introduction and Key Components of Projects Project Development Process and Project Definition Developing and Managing Projects: Idea to Concept Developing and Managing Projects: Concept to Prefeasibility Developing and Managing Projects: Prefeasibility to Feasibility Leveraging Key Stakeholders, Networks, and Value Chains Developing Project Ecosystems & Partnerships Developing and Managing Projects: Feasibility to Funding The take-home seminar materials include templates for project definition, concept document, and internal project information memorandum, as well as in-depth webinar recordings providing additional details on the modules covered.
