DYNAMISER LE FINANCEMENT DE L’ACCÈS À L’ÉNERGIE : À CÔTÉ DE L’OBJECTIF
Summary
The report finds that while energy financing disbursements in High-Impact Countries grew by over 61% between 2013 and 2018, they still lag significantly behind commitments, with $32 billion disbursed against $52 billion committed. These delays affect 49% of energy projects in HICs, driven by administrative burdens and poor project design. The document argues that an annual increase of $45 billion in disbursements is needed by 2030 to meet SDG7 goals.
Key insights
- Energy financing disbursements in High-Impact Countries (HICs) grew significantly faster than overall development financing disbursements in the same regions between 2013 and 2018, increasing by more than 61% compared to approximately 12% for global development financing.
- There is a substantial gap between financial commitments and actual disbursements for energy in HICs; from 2013 to 2018, $32 billion was disbursed against $52 billion in commitments.
- Between 2002 and 2018, 49% of energy sector projects in HICs experienced delays, and 58% of planned disbursements were delayed, though this represents a slight improvement over 2017 figures (52% of projects and 69% of disbursements).
- Disbursement delays are caused by project-specific factors, including administrative heaviness, capacity gaps in donors and implementing entities, and design flaws that ignore local financial services or end-user habits.
- Specific examples of project failures include a GEF-UNDP project in the Indian states of Jharkhand and Manipur delayed by federal administrative procedures, and a biodigester sub-project under Rwanda's Promoting Renewable Energy Programme (PREP) delayed by a design that ignored local consumption habits.
