IED SOLUTIONS

April 2016. IED buys Systems Europe software

IED, already publisher of specialized GEOSIM and GISELEC software for the rural electrification sector, integrates into its range of planning solutions, DAP, GAP, NAP and REBAN software to the former Belgian company SYSTEMS EUROPE in order to complete its software offer to its customers. The IED solutions thus cover all the issues linked to the planning of HV networks and energy generation as well as the reduction of losses on the distribution networks. LAPER and LAP software, older and covered by the new GEOSIM and GISELEC tools, will not be marketed and replaced by the latter software.

June 2014. National Electrification Workshop in Tanzania

Financed by NORAD, the National Electrification Program Prospectus was presented by IED on June 19th 2014 in Dar Es Salaam at Blue Pearl Hotel for a national workshop organized in collaboration with the Rural Energy Agency (REA).

The objectives of the document achieved after 2 years's work, was to provide an outline of nation-wide electrification program for Tanzania (on-grid, off-grid, other technologies) providing the basis for coordinated investments and capacity building efforts of stakeholders (Government, donors, private sector) until 2022. A geospatial approach through GEOSIM tool was particularly used to evaluate investment needs on grid extension. The PROSPECTUS also identified required implementation measures, indicating the costs of the proposed electrification program and reflecting on financing issues.
