Preparation of an Energy Sector Investment Program for the Marshall Islands – REGAIN

Project

Project ID: P181250
Assignment Type: International Firm (Lump sum Contract)
Duration: 12 Months
Location: Remote with Periodic Missions to Majuro
1. Background
The Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) is one of the world's smallest and most isolated nations. The country
consists of 29 atolls and 5 low coral islands situated on about 181 square kilometres (km2) of land mass in the
Pacific Ocean. Majuro (the nation's capital) and Ebeye, the country's two largest urban centres, account for about
96 percent of total population while the remaining inhabit outer atolls. The Government of the Republic of
Marshall Islands, (GRMI) and MEC require assistance to increase the amount of renewable energy generation
and BESS in the selected islands to increase access to electricity and to reduce dependence on hydrocarbon fuels
for their remote populations.
MEC, the state-owned energy utility, generates and provides electricity to Majuro Atoll, serving 55 percent of
RMI's population. MEC also manages three mini grids in Jaluit, Wotje, Rongrong (Majuro Atoll) and Kili Island,
the latter having been recently transferred to MEC from the Kili Bikini Ejit Local Government. The Government
has partnered with the World Bank through the Renewable Energy Generation and Access Increase Project
(REGAIN) – an IDA grant of US$60 million approved and effective as of December 13, 2024, with a closing
date of September 30, 2030. The REGAIN project aims to increase renewable energy generation and improve
electricity access while reducing reliance on diesel-based generation.
RMI’s Electricity Roadmap targets an objective of net zero greenhouse gas emissions and the achievement of
100% renewable electricity in the power generation mix by 2050. As a small and geographically dispersed island
nation, RMI remains highly dependent on imported diesel for electricity generation, which exposes the country
to high energy costs and vulnerability to global fuel price shocks. At the same time, growing electricity demand,
the need to improve the reliability of aging infrastructure, and the expansion of services across outer islands

require significant levels of investment in modern, resilient energy systems. Ensuring a reliable, clean, and cost-
effective electricity supply is therefore critical to achieving national climate commitments, strengthening energy

security, and supporting sustainable socio-economic development.
Under Sub-Component 3.1 of the REGAIN project (Sector Development Assistance), MEC plans to undertake a
study to prepare the country’s Energy Sector Investment Program (ESIP). The ESIP shall propose and define a
set of detailed, prioritized energy investments to safely and reliably increase renewable energy penetration in
Majuro and Ebeye grids, as well as other outer islands. The ESIP shall be prepared in close coordination with the

newly established National Energy Authority (NEA), and shall cover the national footprint of RMI, including
Majuro, Ebeye and the outer island systems.
The ESIP shall take into account the full range of relevant existing studies, including but not limited to:
• The Integrated Resource and Resilience Plan 2024-2034, which already sets out a high-level power system
assessment and identifies a set of proposed investments in Majuro.
• SEDeP and REGAIN projects, including existing and new solar PV and Battery Energy Storage Systems
(BESS) capacity to be deployed.
• Relevant energy sector programs and studies of other development partners active in the RMI, in particular
the Asian Development Bank (ADB), such as the Energy Transition Project, to be considered to ensure
coordination and avoid duplication of efforts.
• RMI Electricity Roadmaps and national targets.
2. Objectives
The objective of this assignment is to prepare a prioritized, costed, and financeable Energy Sector Investment
Programme (ESIP) which is aligned with the existing Energy Strategy and Integrated Resource and Resilience
Plan (IRRP). The ESIP will build upon existing planning and strategy documents and will focus on updating,
operationalizing, and translating these into an actionable investment and implementation framework.
The ESIP should include:
• The identification of investment priorities, including both generation and power grids.
• Descriptions of viable approaches to financing the identified needed investments.
• The enabling actions, including policy options to support the investment program.
• The necessary implementation arrangements required to support delivery of national energy sector
objectives.
3. Project Description
The proposed ESIP project will support the development of a prioritized, costed, and implementable investment
program for the Marshall Islands’ energy sector, aligned with the Government’s existing Energy Strategy and
considering the Integrated Resource and Resilience Plan (IRRP) for Majuro (prepared in 2024). Building on these
existing strategic and planning instruments, as well as an updated IRRP1

covering Majuro, Ebeye and the outer
island systems, the ESIP will translate national energy objectives into an actionable pipeline of investments and

enabling measures required to support sector development, energy security, resilience, decarbonization, and long-
term sustainability. The project will consolidate and update existing and official sector analyses and investment

priorities, while identifying financing approaches, implementation arrangements, and policy actions necessary to
facilitate delivery of priority investments.
The ESIP will include targeted sector diagnostics, a review and validation of the existing least-cost development
pathway, refinement of renewable energy and storage deployment trajectories, and the preparation of an updated
1 The updated IRRP Will be prepared as part of the present technical assistance and will include updating the existing (2024) IRRP for
Majuro and expanding the geographical coverage of the IRRP to also include Ebeye and the outer island systems.

energy sector investment pipeline. The project will also assess investment requirements associated with emerging
priorities such as grid modernization, resilience, storage integration, and e-mobility development. In parallel, the
ESIP will develop an overall financing strategy identifying potential public, private, concessional, and climate
finance sources, together with a policy reform and enabling actions roadmap aimed at addressing barriers to
implementation and investment mobilization.
The project will further establish an implementation and monitoring framework to support effective delivery and
tracking of the ESIP over time. Stakeholder engagement and consultation will be undertaken within the
assignment to ensure alignment across government institutions, utilities, development partners, and other relevant
stakeholders.
The resulting ESIP will provide a practical action plan for sequencing and financing priority energy sector
investments and will serve as a key tool for guiding government decision-making, coordinating development
partner support, and mobilizing investment into the sector.
4. Implementation Arrangements
MEC will be the Client and Employer under this assignment responsible for approving deliverables and payments.
NEA, as the national regulatory body for renewable energy in the Marshall Islands, will act as the principal
regulatory interface between MEC and the Consultant. For deliverables with regulatory or renewable energy
policy implications, the Consultant shall obtain NEA's endorsement prior to MEC's final approval. The Consultant
shall work under the direction of MEC and coordinate closely with:
• MEC management and technical staff.
• REGAIN Project Management Services consultant, as applicable.
• Project Implementation Unit within MEC.
• National Energy Authority (NEA), the national regulatory body for renewable energy, serving as the
regulatory interface between MEC and the Consultant.
