Summary: | This report aims to 1) understand what
economical, political or contractual events affecting power
projects in a region or a specific country led to project
distress; and 2) establish how they affected the various
private power projects. The report describes and analyzes
the trends in private participation in the electric power
sector in developing countries over the 1984-2003 period.
The analysis is based on the survey of 63 electricity
projects under stress. It identifies the most significant
causes of stress, describes the most frequent stress factors
and their combination in "stress patterns," and
presents the consequences of the stress patterns on power
projects. Beyond the presentation of stress patterns, the
report provides insights in the relationship between power
sector reforms, privatization of power utilities and
success/failure of private power projects. |
