Implementing the Action Plan for Energy Access Scale-Up in Africa
The action plan has the target of increasing the percentage of households with electricity access in Sub-Saharan Africa from 25 percent in 2005 to 35 percent in 2015 and 47 percent by 2030. The plan noted that this target is feasible if countries i...

| description |
The action plan has the target of
increasing the percentage of households with electricity
access in Sub-Saharan Africa from 25 percent in 2005 to 35
percent in 2015 and 47 percent by 2030. The plan noted that
this target is feasible if countries improve their sector
policies and implementation capacity and concessional
financing doubles from US$2 billion to US$4 billion
annually. The action plan emphasizes the importance of
country leadership in developing national energy sector
strategies, as well as the need for harmonization, alignment
and coordination of donor support in line with the
principles of partnership set out in the 2005 Paris
declaration on aid effectiveness. The plan notes that
enhancement of government's oversight and regulatory
role will be keys and it emphasizes the role of the private
sector both as a source of investment and for its technical
and managerial know-how. Improved governance and private
sector participation are both needed in bringing about
efficiency improvements in the energy sector. The study was
designed to be catalytic-i.e. to identify a shortlist of
projects with transformational potential and then, in
follow-up phase, to identify the critical preparatory work
needed to move each project forward. |
