* | Abbreviated name: | PARAGUAY-PAUNE | | Project title: | Development of the universal access to electricity strategy in Bolivia, based on a geo-referenced electricity access plan | | Funding entity: | Inter-American Development Bank (IADB) | | Start date: | May 2023 | | End date: | April 2024 | | Researcher(s): | Rafael Palacios Hielscher, Andrés González García, José Ignacio Pérez Arriaga, Santos José Díaz Pastor, Hagos Meresa Weldu | | Description: | The objective of this consultancy is to support the government of Paraguay and ANDE in the development of a national electrification plan as a basis for achieving the goal of universal energy access by 2030.
The project includes the following phases:
1. Development of a georeferenced database in GIS format. This database should include the location of the communities and their buildings, the energy consumption of the communities, the location of existing power lines, access roads, protected areas, identification of the concession areas of the distribution companies, socioeconomic information of the communities, among other relevant information for the development and monitoring of the plan. The database will be prepared using available information to be provided to the consulting firm and data obtained remotely through satellite information or other means of support.
2. Estimation of rural electrification demand at a 2030 horizon (or other proposed by the consulting firm), adequate for the development of the plan.
3. Preparation of the national electrification plan, optimized at the lowest overall cost, and georeferenced that considers the technical and economic feasibility and national technical regulations for grid extensions and off-grid supply systems such as solar mini-grids with storage and photovoltaic home systems. The plan should be based on the estimated energy consumption of the communities. Based on this, and the projected costs of the energy solutions, the plan should size the energy solutions to be implemented to provide access to electricity in the communities, estimate the investment needs of capital costs (CAPEX), operation and maintenance costs (OPEX) and administration costs for the projects. The plan should be based on a global cost optimization to develop an execution and investment plan to achieve universal access by 2030. Finally, scenarios and sensitivities should be developed, estimating the reduction of emissions from the use of renewable technologies and their final results database.
4. Proposal of an investment plan for the execution of the plan (2023-2030), which identifies the investments required and the financing mechanisms to finance the electrification projects proposed in the plan. The definition of this plan requires analyzing the conditions of economic, technical and environmental sustainability of the proposed business models (grid supply, mini-grids and individual systems), the institutional and regulatory framework and the sources of capital and financing mechanisms used for the development of projects for access to electricity in other countries in the region, as well as in Africa and Asia, and which are relevant to Paraguay.
5. Present a template with the technical specifications for the projects resulting from the national electrification plan.
6. Develop a methodology for updating and monitoring the national electrification plan.
7. Identification and presentation of the risks and mitigation measures identified for the implementation of the national electrification plan. | | | |

* | Abbreviated name: | PAKISTAN-PAUNE | | Project title: | Least cost electrification study and mini-grid portfolio readiness assessment for Pakistan | | Funding entity: | World Bank | | Start date: | June 2021 | | End date: | September 2023 | | Researcher(s): | Rafael Palacios Hielscher, Andrés González García, José Ignacio Pérez Arriaga, Santos José Díaz Pastor, Hagos Meresa Weldu | | Description: | The Government of Pakistan adopted sustainable development goals (SDGs) in February 2016. As a part of SDGs, the government has targeted universal energy access by 2030. This project aims to analyze both grid extension and off-grid systems as a potential solution for providing energy access to unelectrified population, allowing to electrify 32 million households.
The World Bank (WB) is supporting Pakistan’s energy sector through “Pakistan Sustainable Energy Program” which includes this project to assist the Government in identifying solutions to achieve universal energy access in Pakistan.
The organizations involved in this project will use the Reference Electrification Model (REM) and the Village Data Analytics (VIDA) for the LCES and mini-grid portfolio assessment respectively. The chosen model and analytical tool have been successfully used for similar activities worldwide.
The Least-Cost Electrification Study (LCES) shall include:
(i) Geospatial analysis (grid and off-grid) - The detailed geospatial analysis will consider, based on good practice and international experience, possible least-cost options for electrification, provide a sound strategic basis to implement systematically staged grid extensions and the deployment of off-grid technologies (mini-grids and standalone systems) powered by cost-effective renewable energy solutions where appropriate.
(ii) Recommendations for implementation – Recommendations on policies, actions and investments needed to achieve the goal of universal electricity access by 2030, including proposed intermediate targets, corresponding investment financing frameworks, an action plan to address the enabling policy and institutional framework, and capacity strengthening initiatives for key sector institutions and agencies involved.
The Mini-Grid Portfolio Assessment shall support mini-grid pipeline development to assist the World Bank in conducting its due diligence on a potential mini-grid investment operation and provide useful evidence and data to sector agencies and stakeholders. | | | | * | Abbreviated name: | HAITI-PAUNE | | Project title: | Haiti National electrification analysis - Consultancy services for the assessment of electrification options | | Funding entity: | World Bank (WB) | | Start date: | August 2022 | | End date: | April 2024 | | Researcher(s): | Rafael Palacios Hielscher, Andrés González García, José Ignacio Pérez Arriaga, Michel Rivier Abbad, Hagos Meresa Weldu | | Description: | Following the Government of Haiti’s request for advisory services, the World Bank appointed Comillas and Waya Energy, with the collaboration of Trama TecnoAmbiental TTA and Castalia, to undertake a National Electrification Analysis (NEA) of Universal Electricity Access Options in Haiti. The objective of the NEA is to provide analysis and insight on various power supply modes options (grid extension, mini grids, standalone systems, meshed grids...) which the World Bank may use to assist in providing advisory services to the Government of Haiti for the preparation of a National Electrification Strategy (NES).
The World Bank is responsible for undertaking the NEA with funding from Policy Dialogue funds and Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP). The NEA is designed to help the World Bank to deliver integrated and flexible advisory services to the Government so as to build its capacity to achieve sector development targets.
The scope of work encompasses the following tasks: (a) identify, review and analyze output (e.g., reports, data) of previous efforts supporting electrification planning in the country, several of which have strong synergies with related sectors including water, health, education, ICT; (b) assess the robustness of existing material and highlight gaps, updates or modifications required c) actively support any additional analysis require to develop a geospatial least cost electrification plan and (d) identify potential options and arrangements for scaling up electrification in Haiti in line with national access targets.
This work will produce an analysis of the electricity services and options that could be provided based on the information shared by the Government and other sector stakeholders to assist the World Bank in providing advisory services to the Government. Any further detailed site-specific analysis will be conducted by the designated country agencies if, and when, the decision to undertake electrification projects is made. It is those site-specific analyses, and not the World Bank’s NEA, that will determine specific vulnerability, risk and mitigation actions associated with different modes of electricity supply. | | | |
