End-review of Norwegian Support to Rural Electrification Projects in Uganda

End-review of Norwegian support to Rural Electrification Projects in Uganda (UGA-3049 10/0021 and 10/0039)

The end-review of two rural electrification programs implemented by the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) in Uganda during the period 2010-2014 with financial support from the Norwegian Embassy (UGA-10/0021 and UGA-10/0039) has established that the projects have over-achieved on the number of connections and achieved their purpose and objectives.

The review also establishes that there is room for improvement related to (i) quality of the implementation, (ii) inclusion of cross-cutting issues, (iii) cost-efficiency of some projects, and (iv) long-term sustainability with regard to operation and maintenance.
