Executive Summary
Introduction:
In Yemen, since mid-March 2015, the conflict has spread to 20 of
the country's 22 governorates, prompting a large-scale protection crisis and aggravating
an already dire humanitarian crisis brought on by years of poverty, poor
governance and ongoing instability. The number of people in need of some form
of humanitarian assistance has increased by 33% from 15.9 million to 21.1
million people. This means that 80% of Yemen's population now requires some
assistance to meet their basic needs for food, water, energy, healthcare,
shelter and other basic supplies. More than 12 million people have been
directly affected by the conflict, including more than 7 million children.
The EU-funded Enhanced Rural Resilience in Yemen Program ERRY is
to enhance the self-reliance of rural people and communities to better cope
with crises, risks and shocks. The project is being initiated, and will be
implemented for a period of three years. The project will be implemented in
eight districts within four governorates as follows:
·
Lahj Governorate: Tuban district and Tour Albaha
district.
·
Abyan Governorate: Kenfar district and louder
district.
Through ERRY a resilience approach is being spearheaded, to
enhance collective action, aid delivery and economic recovery. The program is
designed to enhance the self-reliance of rural people and communities to better
cope with crises, risks and shocks. The solar component of the program will
support communities benefit from improved and more sustainable livelihoods
opportunities through better access to solar energy;
The solar component aims to build community energy resilience in
the target areas. Through its interventions it enhances community-based access
and application of sustainable solar energy across rural communities in the
project targeted areas. Priority will be given to rural basic services such as
health, water supply, education, communal services, market places, solar water
pumping,.etc. that contribute and build community energy resilience. It also
promotes application and spreading of the use of solar water pumps in the
agriculture sector within a comprehensive package including use of efficient
water irrigation system. Furthermore, it also promotes micro solar-based
business development. Following are the key planned intervention for building
rural community solar resilience in the targeted districts:
·
Expansion of solar energy applications to strengthen
rural energy resilience, capacity building and recovery;
·
Decentralized solar energy services installed in
public service centers to reinforce livelihood resilience of vulnerable rural
communities;
·
Solar energy introduced to support enhancement of
rural community energy resilience;
·
Marketing of micro-business development for solar
energy supported;
The first step in the process of building energy resilience in
the targeted districts is to carry out socio-economic and solar needs/gaps
assessments. A team of two national consultants will be assigned to carry out
these assessments.
Geographical Coverage:
The work under this assignment
will be implemented in four districts at two governorates as follow:
·
Lahj Governorate: Tuban
district and Tour Albaha district.
·
Abyan Governorate:
Kenfar district and louder district.
Targeted categories of social services and
productive assets:
·
Health units at district level
·
Schools at districts level,
·
Local offices of Health and
education at districts level.
·
Productive based assets e.g.
market places and productive based societies at district level.

Objectives:
1. Undertake
institutional arrangement at local level, consult with all stakeholders at
governorates, districts and community levels.
2. Undertake
inspecting, testing of solar energy system equipment to ensure compliance of
all delivered solar systems equipment and conformity with the pre identified
quality standards and technical specifications at central level.
3. Delivering,
installing and operating solar energy systems at local level in the targeted
districts to guarantee proper delivery, installation and operation of the solar
energy systems.
4. Supervise the
take-over from the supplier to the beneficiaries and ensure installation and
operation of delivered solar energy systems are smooth and well performed
through conducting field monitoring for all process of handling.
ADWAR Main
Task:
According to the TOR regarding oversight and inspection process to
import, install and operate the solar systems, ADWAR main tasks in the inspection process are:
-
Consult with the
different stakeholders at the governorate, district and community levels in
close coordination and cooperation with the project team.
-
Develop the
institutional arrangement and technical installations monitoring mechanisms and
appropriate documentation in close coordination with the project team including
donor requirements.
-
Verification of
institutional arrangement with the beneficiaries/recipient of the solar systems
to ensure proper use, management and avoid any misuse risks.
-
Undertake rapid
capacity assessment of the beneficiaries and highlight mitigation measures to
address shortcoming, and control misuse and or other risks, and ensure
sustainable use of the delivered solar systems.
-
Verify, collect and
document data and information on the operation/service of the
beneficiaries/receiving institutions including the names of the communities and
population benefiting from the services as well as producing raw communication
materials.
-
Inform in writing the
beneficiaries on their obligations and measures for proper use, maintenance and
management of the delivered solar systems.
- Test all required equipment before delivery using reliable testing
instruments and check their manufacturing date, their existing situation,
storing conditions, handling methods and transportation safety, and verify
their compliance with the specified quality standards, technical specifications
and safety norms.
-
Testify all solar
energy systems before, during and after installation in sites of communal
services and verify where applied solar systems for different uses installed
properly in the targeted areas and ensure their reliability, durability and
sustainability.
- Ensure fulfillment of all compliance requirements, quality standard,
technical specification, and safety norms for all components to be installed in
an integrated and compatible manner.
- Set up a code of practice for sites assessment, preparation of the
systems, installation, assembly, commissioning of equipment and special
requirements for equipment, hand over mechanism to beneficiaries and
maintenance guidelines.
- Prepare operational manual and a practical field guide listing the
essential issues that require attention during installation, follow-up and
maintenance. The compiled manual should address all activities of installation
and operation as well as regular maintenance procedures guideline. This manual
will be regarded as a practical field guide and a hand-on and accessible
manual. The beneficiaries of this guideline are the rural community
beneficiaries.
