Introduction Only around 10.5% of households have access to electricity with over half of them living in Maputo and its surrounding areas. All the provincial capitals and most of the municipal areas are also supplied with electricity. Most of these urban centres are connected to the main national electrical grid which is owned and operated by the Mozambican power utility, Electricidade de Moçambique (EDM). According to the Ministry of Energy’s Management Strategy for the Energy Sector (2008-2012), Mozambique is recording a yearly growth in the electricity demand of 7%. The objective of the Government of Mozambique (GoM) is to reach an electrification rate of 15% by 2019 (and 20% by 2020). EDM’s existing installed capacity is approximately 240MW (109MW hydro and 130MW diesel and gas). Nevertheless, most of EDM’s available supply capacity - about 136MW (61MW Hydro and 75MW thermal) - is generated by ageing plants which would require refurbishment. In 2005, the total energy consumption was 1,707 GWh and peak-demand was 284.6 MW. The total power generating capacity including the share from Cahora Bassa is in excess of what is needed in the country. However, due to lack of power transmission lines and distribution networks, the availability of hydroelectricity for the time being is largely restricted to urban areas. In other areas, the electricity simply is not available and where it is available, is supplied from diesel generators. By 2020, Mozambique should have a total energy need of 5.40 GWh and an electricity demand close to 900 MW based on an annual demand growth of 7 - 8%. The main source of electricity to the national grid comes from hydropower plants. The remaining centres have diesel or gas generators that supply electricity which is distributed through mini- grids that are independent of the main national grid system. All except a few of these independent systems are owned by the State and operated by district administrations, municipalities or other government institutions. There are still many district capital and other rural localities with relatively high population concentration that are either not currently supplied with electricity or have old generation and distribution systems which are no longer functioning. In low-demand rural centres, electricity development, connection and operation costs per customer are higher than those in larger towns and cities. Revenues from consumers rarely cover costs. Most consumers fall within the domestic consumer category and very little electricity is used for economic purposes. There are very few large consumers. Under the current regime of uniform tariffs throughout the country, there is an implicit cross-subsidy of consumers in these low-demand centres by consumers in the larger cities and towns. Most of the rural areas are located far away from the national grid. For these areas, rural electrification programs based on off grid renewable energy systems is probably the most suitable option. 1.2 Outline of the Energy Development & Access Project Only a small fraction of the country's vast potential energy resources are currently being exploited, despite a considerable amount of international and domestic resources being committed to the expansion of the main national grid network and the independent generation and mini-grid systems. Access to electricity remains extremely low. This unsatisfactory situation is partly due to the high cost of extending networks and increasing the number of connections in remote and relatively low-demand areas using conventional technologies and design standards. The three primary challenges facing the Government of Mozambique: Increasing access to modern energy, in particular electricity; Mitigating adverse environmental, livelihood and health impacts of traditional bio-fuels production and use; Promotion and prudent management of export-oriented energy projects. Access to energy is a precondition for sustainable economic development and social progress in Mozambican's peri-urban and rural areas. GoM has affirmed within the PARPA II (PRSP) the critical role of the energy sector in reducing poverty. The importance of the energy sector is also emphasized in the World Bank's 2008-11 Country Partnership Strategy (CPS) which identifies adequate access to energy resources and services as a key driver of growth and poverty P PROJECT DESCRIPTION RPF alleviation. The CPS prioritises especially the provision of energy services to rural schools, administrative posts, and hospitals. The energy-related goals set in the PARPA are being turned into strategies such as the Off-grid and Renewable Energy Strategy, Generation and Transmission Master Plan, North-South (backbone) Transmission Least-Cost Study, and National Bio-fuels Strategy. The "Mega Projects" consisting of national and regional transmission project initiatives aim at facilitating large scale investment on least power generation and regional trade. They will ensure, t among others, long term sustainable least-cost power generation in the country and help finance c rural electrification. The new GoM’s strategy for the energy and electricity sector will seek to e secure substantial private sector investments for those generation and transmission "Mega j Projects". o Within the context of the new Energy Strategy and policy, and in order to tackle the challenge of r increasing access to modern energy, the government of Mozambique elaborated the National P Energy Development and Access Program (NEDAP) with a view to mobilize donor funding to implement a broad ranging and flexible program of investments on urban, peri-urban and rural s electrification and access to modern energy services. s The proposed IDA Energy Development and Access Project (EDAP APL-2) constitutes the e continuation of the ongoing
