Mongolia is a vast landlocked country
with a relatively small population. Other than those living
in the capital city and a few urban centers, the rest of its
citizens (about 35 percent or one million people) are
geographically disbursed throughout the rural countryside.
Among them about three quarters are nomadic herders living
in portable tents (gers). Given the immense logistical and
climatic challenges, rural electrification was largely
undeveloped until the Government launched the National
100,000 Solar Ger Electrification Program in 1999. The
World Bank-assisted Renewable Energy and Rural Electricity
Access Project (REAP) was conceived in 2006 to help the
Government revitalize the 100k Program and remove other
barriers to rural electrification. The ultimate objective
of the project was to increase electricity access and
improve the reliability of services in off-grid soum centers
and amongst the herder population. The main portion of this
report is divided into two chapters (Chapters 2-3). Chapter
2 is a brief description of the two beneficiary surveys
carried out after REAP was completed. It includes the
methodologies used, the survey processes, and the
survey's areas of focus. Chapter 3 presents the main
results and findings of the surveys based on qualitative and
quantitative information and data collected. They include
three main aspects: use and sustainability of REAP portable
photovoltaic solar home systems; immediate impacts of the
resulting changes in energy use patterns; and where the
availability and use of electricity have the most impact on
the nomadic herder community's quality of life and development. |
