1 TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR INDIVIDUAL CONSULTANT (IMPACT) EVALUATION EXPERT 1 Project Background Motivated by the fact that million ECOWAS citizens have no access to electricity (and 77 percent of them live in rural areas) and due to the strategic importance of energy in achieving sustainable development and poverty reduction in the ECOWAS region, ECREEE has designed a regional renewable energy off-grid project whose objective is to increase access to sustainable electricity services in the ECOWAS and Sahel region for household, commercial enterprises and public health and education facilities. The project is funded by the World Bank and framed in the ECOWAS Program on Access to Sustainable Electricity Services (EPASES), directly contributing to the goals of the ECOWAS Regional Renewable Energy Policy (EREP) with a target to provide universal access to electricity to the region by The proposed project will comprise of 3 components. Component 1: Technical Assistance activities to improve off-grid market ecosystem. These Technical Assistance activities will precede the other activities in the project and will be provided to all the project countries in parallel. These TA activities will be responsible for creating an ecosystem to implement the electrification activities within the project detailed in other components. In addition to regulatory support, the activities will include a private sector support facility that will support the startup and growth of entrepreneurial solar firms in the target countries. Specific activities that would be included in this component are, market assessment studies, identification of 1
2 barriers towards a regional harmonized market of solar products, development of private sector facilities, seed funding support to start-ups with good potential, attracting impact investors through matching grant schemes, developing a guarantee fund to mitigate the risk exposure of commercial banks to lend in new companies in the solar space and to mitigate the payment risk exposure from public institutions to the private service providers. Component 2: Electrification of Households and Commercial Enterprises: This component will support electrification using standalone solar systems in areas where load clusters do not exist and the best technical and financial solution is standalone solar systems. The key constraint for implementation of such programs has been identified as access to finance. This will be provided by means of one or more credit lines from the World Bank through selected Financial Institutions (FIs) in collaboration with the PIU. The FIs may include development banks, commercial banks, debt funds, leasing companies and micro-finance institutions. The credit lines will provide working capital and receivables financing to project developers (private sector enterprises - PSEs, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and productive end-users of solar power.) This facility will address key financing challenges such as lack of liquidity in the financial sector, lack of funding in local currency and foreign exchange, and limited capacity to provide collateral. Component 3: Support service providers to electrify Public Institutions. This component will support electrification of public institutions and community facilities using standalone solar systems. The total number of public institutions electrified under the project will be determined through multiple factors. A lifecycle approach to electrification will be followed so that the program considers costs and service delivery associated not only with the initial installation, but also with ongoing operations, maintenance and equipment replacement. The sustainability of the project, particularly in terms of budgetary provisions beyond the life of the project, should be addressed to avoid stranded or failed systems. 2
3 The project preparation is targeting 19 countries, initially organized in 4 areas: 1- Area 1: Senegal, the Gambia, Mauritania, Guinee, Mali and Burkina Faso 2- Area 2: Sierra Leone, Liberia, Cote D Ivoire, Ghana, Togo and Benin 3- Area 3: Niger, Nigeria, Chad, Central Africa Republic and Cameroon 4- Area 4: Cabo Verde and Guinea Bissau.
