C40 Cities under the Supporting South African Cities to Deliver an Energy Secure Future project is looking for a consultant or a consultancy firm to conduct research into the market appetite to buy green electricity from the City of Cape Town as a utility provider. The project outcomes that will be useful to the City are:
- Insight into the market size and typical profile of customers interested in purchasing green electricity from the City
- Insight into market drivers and willingness to pay for the purchase of green electricity from the City.
- Insight into the reporting and certification requirements for the City to provide to the market.
- Insight into the market sentiment to choose the City over other entities offering a similar service.
This market sounding will form a key component of the feasibility to recognise green electricity for on sale to customers and trading within the City of Cape Town grid.
