This will lay the foundation for an efficient, modern and competitive energy system that will enable greater private sector participation and investment in generation capacity to address South Africa's ongoing power crisis."The Roadmap for Eskom in a Reformed Electricity Supply Industry", published by the Department of Public Enterprises, outlines a structural reform, where an independent transmission system and market operator (ITSMO) can procure electricity from a diversified, competitive generation sector on economic grounds and at least cost.However, a detailed implementation and transition strategy, that also looks at future mandates, roles and business models as well as risks and other future opportunities for the respective Eskom divisions is still to be finalised. It is the responsibility of the divisions to define their position and revenue streams in the future South African Electricity Sector.Against this backgorund, the South African-German Energy Program (SAGEN), funded by the German government and implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH in collaboration with the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE), Eskom and the South African Local Government Association (SALGA), was approached by Eskom (Generation) to- provide support in analysing the implications of the planned power sector reform as well as the introduction of competitive markets for electricity/other system or ancillary services on Eskom Generation's current business model,- provide support in identifying the skills required in the company in the future,- assist in developing sound adaptation and transition strategies for the future, including a more renewables-based generation portfolio and potential business opportunities arising from an emerging green hydrogen economy in South Africa and globally.GIZ-SAGEN would like to respond to this request and is looking for expert consulting services to:1.
