📢 Project Description:
In 2016, Georgia joined the Energy Union through the Energy Union Founder Protocol. In 2017, the Georgian Parliament ratified the protocol, establishing the Energy Union legislation. This led to the adoption of the Law of Georgia in 2019, which established electricity markets based on market principles such as competition, transparency, non-discrimination, and sustainability. In 2020, the Government of Georgia approved the "Concept of Electricity Market Model", and the Energy and Water Supply Regulatory Commission of Georgia approved the "Rules of the Electricity Market" to define the organisation and functioning of wholesale electricity markets. The electricity markets began operating from the concept date, with the Georgian State Electric System (SSE) responsible for forecasting and procuring losses in the transmission network. The SSE needs an automated accounting system (ESCA) to adapt to modern technologies and provide nationwide electricity from metering points.

Senior Project Manager / Solution Business Architect for:
Integrated monitoring and early warning forest fire detection system (IMEWFDS) implementation project.
United Nations (UN) project (RFP 3100005138) for Provision of technical assistance for building up integrated monitoring and early warning forest smoke detection system in the Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park by innovative remote sensing tools, in Georgia
System Video:
This initiative, undertaken by the International Business and Economic Development Centre (IBEDC) under a contract with the United Nations, seeks to enhance forest fire management using innovative remote sensing tools.
The objective of this project (Integrated Monitoring and Early Warning Forest Fire Detection System Implementation Project) is to implement a monitoring and early detection system for forest and landscape fires. The system enhances early detection capabilities, provides real-time monitoring, and facilitates quick response to potential fire incidents. The system will be installed on the customer's local server and will provide secure access to authorised users through a web interface.
Project key objectives were:
- Develop an integrated monitoring and early warning system for forest fires.
- Utilise innovative remote sensing tools to enhance fire detection capabilities.
- Establish a standard operating procedure for the system's use.
- Train personnel on the new system for effective implementation.
Stakeholders:
- United Nations (UN): Client, providing oversight and ensuring project aligns with global standards and protocols;
- International Business and Economic Development Center (IBEDC): Contractor responsible for project execution;
- LEPL The Agency of Protected Areas (http://apa.gov.ge/en) of Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources Protection of Georgia Protected Areas – Beneficiary of the System;
- Local Authorities and Park Management: Key stakeholders in the Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park who will utilize and manage the new system;
- Local Community: Indirect beneficiaries of enhanced fire detection and management systems.
