  • Specific Strategies
  • Is there a master electrification plan in your country? Describe its main features and if are they being followed?
  • Does the master plan include both centralized and decentralized electrification?
  • Are there specific strategies and targets for: 1. Energy Access 2. Renewable Energy 3. Rural electrification? What are the main features and are they being followed?
  • Are there specific support schemes/subsidies for: 1. Access 2. Rural electrification 3. Off-grid electrification? Please describe these. Are any of these associated to using Renewable Energies? Are subsidies for diesel or kerosene subsidies available?
  • Are there specific strategies / policies for different technologies? (Renewable Energies, Microgrids, Stand Alone Systems, Biomass, etc.) and is current regulation compatibility between these?
  • Is energy part of Poverty reduction strategy papers, NDCs, etc?
  • structured by year or by technology
8 Power Sector Regulation

Identify and describe the major pieces of regulation addressing the following elements:

  • Electrification
  • Renewables
  • Off-grid developments
  • Public/Private Partnerships
  • Industry privatization
  • Wholesale electricity generation (Planning, investment, ownership and remuneration)
  • Distribution (Remuneration, quality of service, ownership)
  • Transmission (planning, charges, ownership)
  • Retail (tariff structures, customers categories)
  • Quality of service
