A BRIDGE TO UNIVERSAL ENERGY ACCESS

Key Messages from the May 2013 Workshop
Access to modern energy service has direct bearing on poverty
reduction and rural development. Globally, 70% of the poor and 85% of
those without access to electricity live in rural areas
Universal access to electricity by 2030 is achievable and affordable – as
proven in other countries, the goal can be achieved with sustained
government’s commitment, targeted sector policies, and significant financial
support from donors
 The National Electrification Plan (NEP) should chart out a path towards
universal access designed specifically for Myanmar, embrace both grid and
off-grid solutions, and include appropriate policy and technical innovation to
lower cost, improve reliability, and provide timely service to all households
 The World Bank Group will support NEP Development. Both financial
support for investments, and technical assistance for institutional
development will be available to Myanmar for the implementation of NEP

Key Messages from the November 2013 Workshop
Comprehensive sector planning to address both long term and short
term challenges and align individual projects against
Broad stakeholder engagements in process and nationwide geographic
coverage of NEP
Holistic approach to tackle supply shortage, high system losses, and
expansion of energy services
Consider all financing options to bridge funding gaps, including donor
grants, concessional loans, private sector investment, and cross-subsidies,
given tremendous investment needs.
 Is fundamental to define clear roles and responsibilities of key
institutions at the national and regional/state levels, including planning,
implementation, monitoring, and evaluation functions

Myanmar National Electrification Plan (NEP) 2014-2030
•
NEP is envisaged to be a comprehensive action plan for developing,
financing, and implementing electricity access scale-up program nationwide,
with the target of achieving universal access by 2030.
•
NEP aims to align support from different stakeholders with the
implementation program for achieving national access targets and syndicates
financing on a timely, ongoing and programmatic basis.
Key Elements:
1.
Geospatial Least Cost Electrification Rollout plan (grid and off-grid)
2.
Road Map and Investment Prospectus

Scope of Work
1
Project electricity demand and connections at a disaggregated level
2
Compare different technologies and electricity supply options, and estimate
total costs of electrification at each sub-location
3
Create GIS-based spatial least-cost electrification planning platform with georeferenced data layers that cover both grid extension and off-grid applications
4
Gather data to support the spatial planning platform
5
Examine the sensitivity of select outputs of the least cost plan to key policy
variables

Implementation Arrangements
• MOEP and MLFRD jointly lead the NEP preparation with
participation from other member agencies of NEMC and REPWSC
and assistance from the World Bank.
• MOEP and MLFRD co-manage consultants together with World
Bank. This includes strategic guidance to data collection, review of
key deliverables, organization of workshops and study tours.
• Consultants work closely with the government teams throughout
the NEP preparation process
• Close coordination with ADB, JICA and other DPs on respective,
related initiatives.
