From 2005 to 2012, 30% of PPPs signed by local governments (les collectivités locales) regarded street lighting. To assist local governments to develop PPPs in this sector, the Mission d’appui aux partenariats public-privé (MAPPP - the French PPP Unit) has provided model contractual provisions for street lighting PPPs together with commentary.

RfP documents contain draft energy performance contract to be entered into by the local authority (Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation - BMC) and the ESCO (Contractor). The draft contract is based on the shared savings model. The Contractor undertakes to enhance the existing street lighting infrastructure, install cost-effective modern lamp technology, feeder panels for automation and metering, and to operate and maintain the street lighting system covering approximately 20,000 light fixtures. The construction period is 8 months from the effective date of the contract.
Street lighting infrastructure in Bhubaneswar, the capital of the Indian state of Odisha, is outdated, inefficient, and in poor condition. Small streets and residential areas have poor, if any, lighting. Resource inefficiencies also make it expensive, creating a burden on the city’s budget. The city’s municipal authority, the Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation, asked for IFC’s assistance to design and structure the transaction, and manage a public-private partnership bid process to identify a qualified private sector partner to upgrade and manage the street lighting system.
