    LAD CASE STUDY Using Private Equity to Improve f Power Distribution in Uganda Chris Walker LAD ABOUT LAD The Leadership Academy for Development (LAD) trains government officials and business leaders from developing countries to help the private sector be a constructive force for economic growth and development. It teaches carefully selected participants how to be effective reform leaders, promoting sound public policies in complex and contentious settings. LAD is a project of the Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law, part of Stanford University’s Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies, and is conducted in partnership with the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. LAD gratefully acknowledges support from the Omidyar Network. Using Private Equity to Improve Power Distribution in Uganda Introduction It is summer 2004. Fred Kalisa, the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Energy sits in his Kampala home on the eve of one of the biggest moments in his political career. Kalisa had dedicated the past ten years of his life to building Uganda’s energy sector and two summers ago he had spearheaded the government’s wide-reaching Energy Reform drive. That effort split the vertically-integrated Ugandan Electricity Board (UEB) into three distinct state-owned companies to manage generation, transmission and distribution, respectively. The next few weeks would likely determine how much that hard work paid off, in what was to potentially be Africa’s first electricity distribution concession granting and privatization. Kalisa knows the stakes are high. After several private companies had pulled out of the negotiations to join the concession, he is left with only one potential partner, a newly formed parastatal organization from London and Johannesburg along with potential support from the World Bank.
