Objective and Purpose of the Assignment
The Energy Sector Reforms and Financial Sustainability Program, with three Subprograms, aims to
address fiscal, governance, technical, and policy deficits in Pakistan-s energy sector. This
programmatic approach and policy-based loans will finance three subprograms to be implemented in
2019-2023. Through interlinked policy actions, reform areas of the three sequenced subprograms are
underpinned on three pillars: (i) securing financial sustainability, (ii) strengthening
institutional and regulatory governance, and (iii) reinforcing infrastructure improvements.

The TA Subproject Building Capacities of Women in the Energy Sector in Pakistan supports both the

Subprograms 2 and 3. The Subproject-s gender targets include (i) gender assessment of the energy
sector; (ii) development and adoption of gender mainstreaming policy framework for the energy
sector, (iii) gender capacity building of staff in power utility, distribution, transmission, and
generation companies, and (iv) training of technical staff of energy sector agencies, solar
technicians, and entrepreneurs.

The Asian Development Bank seeks a consulting firm to carry out the Subproject. The firm should
have (i) a solid capacity to conduct a gender diagnostic of the energy sector, (ii) strong policy
advocacy experience particularly in developing gender policies in relation to the energy sector,
(iii) extensive work with the energy sector in Pakistan, and (iv) expertise in designing and
implementing technical training on solar technology.

The consulting firm will implement the following: (i) produce a gender diagnostic of the energy
sector while establishing a baseline on women-s participation in the energy sector value chain, as
employees in sector organizations, service providers, entrepreneurs, and consumers; (ii) develop a
national gender mainstreaming policy for the energy sector; (iii) design and implement a
replicable technical training program to develop women as certified technicians and master trainer

secure accreditation and certification from relevant training institutes and government line
agencies for the training graduates as solar technicians and master trainers and (v) design and
implement a leadership training for women staff and gender sensitization training for men and women
