FENAKA seeking party to establish electricity network in Goidhoo atoll

Utility company FENAKA is seeking a party to interlink a power network between some islands of Baa atoll.

FENAKA is working to link three isolated islands of Baa atoll, Goidhoo, Fulhadhoo and Fehendhoo via an electricity network, and establish a central powerhouse in Goidhoo. While the project has been announced once before, it did not receive much interest, due to which the project has been announced once again.

According to the announcement, the project requires a bid security of USD 10,000 or its equivalent in Maldivian Rufiya. FENAKA said the bid security must be an original bank guarantee letter, a guaranteed and stamped cheque or an original insurance policy from an insurance company registered with the central bank.

Those interested in bidding may register themselves before October 19. Quotations and estimates must be submitted before October 20.

The Goidhoo sub-atoll has a population of around 1,500 people.
