DYNAMISER LE FINANCEMENT DE L’ACCÈS À L’ÉNERGIE : À CÔTÉ DE L’OBJECTIF
Summary
This 2020 report by Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) analyzes the gap between financial commitments and actual disbursements for energy access in High-Impact Countries (HICs). Using OECD Creditor Reporting System (CRS) data, it evaluates the efficiency of development financing for electricity and clean cooking, identifying systemic delays and project design flaws that hinder the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG7).
Key insights
- Energy sector disbursements in High-Impact Countries (HICs) grew significantly faster than overall development financing disbursements in those same countries between 2013 and 2018, increasing by over 61% compared to a 12% increase for global development financing.
- There is a substantial gap between financial commitments and actual disbursements for energy financing in HICs; between 2013 and 2018, commitments totaled 52 billion US dollars while disbursements were only 32 billion US dollars.
- To meet SDG7 energy access goals, annual disbursements need to increase by approximately 45 billion US dollars between 2020 and 2030. The total disbursements from 2013 to 2018 (32 billion US dollars) were insufficient to cover even a single year of the required annual investment.
- While disbursement delays have slightly decreased since 2002, they remain significant. Between 2002 and 2018, 58% of planned energy sector disbursements and 49% of projects in HICs experienced delays.
- Among 13 countries with complete data, Myanmar experienced the longest average disbursement delays, while Madagascar experienced the shortest.
- Project-specific factors contribute to low disbursement rates, including administrative burdens and poor project design. Examples include a GEF-UNDP project in India's Jharkhand and Manipur states delayed by federal administrative procedures, and Rwanda's Promoting Renewable Energy Programme (PREP) biodigester sub-project, which failed to account for local user habits and financial service constraints.
