THIS SUBJECT PLEASE QUOTE NO ADM/273/01 THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA 16th October 2015 Mafalda Duarte Climate Investment Funds, Project Manager, CIF Administrative Unit Washington D. C. SUBMISSION OF UGANDAS SREP INVESTMENT PLAN I wish to submit for the consideration of the Climate investment Fund the Investment Plan for Scaling up Renewable Energy in Uganda. The Government of Uganda greatly appreciates the support provided by the CIF Administrative Unit as well as the Multilateral Development Banks in the Development of the SREP Investment Plan for Uganda. I hope the SREP subcommittee will endorse the Investment Plan so that additional energy is provided for the social economic development of Uganda. Uganda has priotised the development of the energy sector realising that energy is the driver of social economic development. The country’s development is guided by ‘’Vision 2040 for Uganda’’ which provides the development path and strategies to operationalise Uganda’s vision of becoming a modern and Prosperous country within 30 years. To realise this vision we shall need adequate and reliable energy. This Investment Plan for Scaling up Renewable Energy is therefore a critical step towards achieving our vision. The implementation of the Investment Plan will assist the Government of Uganda in meeting the country’s targets set in the Uganda’s Vision 2040 as well as contribute to meeting the targets set in our SE4ALL Action Agenda 2015. We believe the SREP support will be instrumental in helping to catalyze investment in projects of Geothermal Development, Solar PV Off-grid rural electrification, Solar PV On-grid Net Metering and in the development of wind mills. We look forwards to the support of SREP for this Investment Plan and to working with CIF and the Multilateral Development Banks to implement the projects outlined in the Investment Plan.
