Examine existing prefeasibility and feasibility studies and other data when
available (The documentation available at CERE’s Library or data room is
provided in Annex 1). Review the investments as previously proposed and revise
the proposed configuration to reflect one that would be competitive, given the
current electricity market and tariff structures.
Conduct preliminary site investigations including hydrological, topographical,
geological and geotechnical studies.
Develop preliminary layouts of hydraulic structures, electro-mechanical and
electrical equipment and do selection of the main project characteristics such as
installed capacity, energy production, capacity factor, etc.
Develop preliminary cost estimates based on major quantities and cost items.
Identify potential socio and environmental impacts, and proposed solutions.
Carry out/update the project economic and financial analysis at pre-feasibility
level.
Highlight the main risks facing the project, and possible mitigation measures.
This information will be included in the Consultant’s pre-feasibility report for each
site to be reviewed by PCJ, MEM and the World Bank.
3.4 PHASE II: SCOPE OF THE CONSULTING ASSIGNMENT
Following PCJ’s instruction to proceed with the feasibility study, the Consultant shall
carry out the following Phase II activities:
Continue site investigation works on the sites including major geotechnical
investigations.
Define all key structures and equipment in sufficient detail to obtain quantities for
all items contributing more than about 10% of the cost of structures and
equipment.
Provide a detailed initial cost estimate for: (i) the initial capital costs including
access roads, transmission interconnection(s) to the grid; (ii) the implementation
of the environmental and social management plans; and for (iii) the operations
and maintenance of the proposed facilities.
