Technical Assistance to Develop Guidelines for Evaluating Demand Forecasts and Least-Cost Expansion Plans for the Zambian Energy Regulation Board (NARUC/USAID)

VIS has been commissioned by NARUC (assignment funded by USAID) to support the Zambian Energy Regulation Board (ERB) towards a more accurate assessment of energy sector investment needs and respective planning. Improved system planning will help to ensure that investment needs for system improvement or expansion are prudently identified, and that investment is appropriately targeted to where it is needed most. As part of its mission, VIS will prepare Guidelines for Evaluating Demand Forecasts and Least Cost Expansion Planning (LCEP) tailored to the Zambian context and execute a week-long capacity building workshop with our Zambian ERB colleagues.
