Common use of Additional mechanisms within the Programme Clause in Contracts

Additional mechanisms within the Programme. 5.1 Pre-defined projects 1) “Feasibility study on utilizing the hydro power potential in existing water supply systems and upgrading potential for existing small scale hydro power plants in water supply systems” Project Promoter: Sustainable Energy Development Agency (SEDA) Donor project partner(s): Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE) Other project partner(s): N/A Programme outcome the project contributes to: “Increased renewable energy production” Total maximum eligible project costs: € 350,000 Project grant rate: 100% Maximum project grant amount: € 350,000 The project will contribute to a better knowledge of sites in water supply systems, such as irrigation dams and dams for drinking water, where appropriate conditions for implementing technically and economically feasible investments exist. The pre-defined project will include, inter alia, the following activities: • Mapping of sites in water supply systems where there are available appropriate conditions for implementing technically and economically feasible investments; • Mapping of the upgrading potential for already existing small-scale hydro power plants in water supply systems; • Analysis of the technical, social, legal and environmental feasibility of small-hydro installations on water supply systems. A report from the fact finding and analysis will be prepared for supporting the PO’s preparation for the open call on the area. 2) “System for Forecasts, Control аnd Management оf HPP Generation аnd Dams Condition” Project Promoter: National Electricity Company EAD (NEK EAD) Donor project partner(s): N/A Other project partner(s): N/A Programme outcome the project contributes to: “Increased renewable energy production” Total maximum eligible project costs: €2,470,000 Project grant rate: 50% Maximum project grant amount: €1,235,000 The project will increase the energy security and the renewable energy production of Bulgaria through an upgraded and centralized system for forecasts, control and management of hydro power generation, including the conditions of the dams of the hydro power plants. The project will contribute to a more efficient use of water resources; optimized energy production from hydro power plants covered by the system and a safer energy supply. The pre-defined project will include, inter alia, the following activities: • Analyses/studies of the existing situation; • Preparation of Terms of reference for a suitable upgraded system for optimization of the water resources; • Procurement of software solutions and equipment; • Installation, data migration, adjustment and preliminary tests of the system.
