The new deadline is April 1, 2026, at 5:00 PM.

The Ethiopian Nuclear Energy Commission (ENEC) has announced an extension of the submission deadline for the Request for Expression of Interest (REOI) titled “Consulting Services to Support National Nuclear Programme Infrastructure Development and Nuclear Power Project Management in Ethiopia.” The REOI was originally published on February 15, 2026, with a submission deadline of March 17, 2026, at 5:00 PM. To allow additional time for interested and qualified international consulting firms to prepare their submissions, ENEC extended the deadline by 15 days to April 1, 2026, at 5:00 PM (17:00). The commission encourages experienced international consulting firms with demonstrated expertise in nuclear programme infrastructure development and nuclear power plant project management to submit their expressions of interest using the extended period. Interested firms are advised to submit their documents in accordance with the requirements outlined in the REOI.
