3. Development and Energy in Africa (DEA)
A project of the EC COOPENER Programme
start 1 May 2005, duration 30 months
implemented by Risø National laboratory, Denmark (coordinator)
Energy Centre of the Netherlands (ECN)
6 African Centres
Overall aims:
to identify and examine the developmental impacts of energy innovations
to use the information obtained to improve on-going and future energy interventions

5. DEA: First National Workshop
Immediate Objectives
to establish and apply an Assessment Framework for evaluating development and poverty impacts of energy interventions
to engage in a dialogue with energy policy makers and other stakeholders on the basis of the framework, with a view to incorporating these issues in energy policy.
September 2005
DEA: First National Workshop

6. Why an Assessment Framework?
Energy access is a necessary but insufficient input for development
Energy access helps to achieve MDGs
How much? How?
Can it be measured and documented?
Could it help us design projects that have more development impact?
Could documented evidence of development impact help obtain more funding?
Could it encourage more inter-sectoral cooperation?
How can such information help policy makers and other stakeholders?

8. Development impact of energy projects
How does information feed into policy formation, decision making and implementation?
Assessment Framework
data, elements of success, indicators
energy project #1
Policy +
Project Design
Feasibility studies
Funding
information
Development Impacts
energy project #2

DEA: First National Workshop

9. Information on project impacts and the policy process
How does information about project success or failure and impacts get incorporated into policy?
How does experience from real project outcomes (success, failure, impacts) play a role in new project formulation and implementation?
What kind of information could be useful to policy makers?
How can this information come to the attention of policy makers/stakeholders?

10. DEA and other energy-development initiatives
GVEP
DEA can contribute, directly or indirectly, to all the initiatives
GVEP
GNESD
EUEI
DEA
AREED
REEEP

11. DEA – Development and Energy in Africa
Develop an Assessment Framework for measuring impact of projects on MDGs or SD
DEA aims at a “tool” or “systematic approach” to measure impact of energy projects
Potentially useful for all initiatives, and national policy making – assess existing interventions and design better ones in future
