Complementary Services. INGENS has proposed (and started to test) a pragmatic, low-cost approach to improve impact evaluation for future electrification programs: a simple Add-on Electricity Impact Evaluation Instrument (AddIE) for the specific case of firm level productivity which shall be applicable to a broad range of electrification programs (EP), and cost well under US$100k per EP. This tool allows EP managers to move from simple monitoring and reporting of numerical targets achieved to evaluation of the (pro-poor) impact achieved among an important segment of the target group. Five countries were studied: Benin, Ghana, Nigeria, Uganda, and South Africa. This report discusses the overall results of the studies and lessons learned. Finally, it presents next steps and a funding request. There are five annexes at the end of the report, including the questionnaire used, case examples, pictures, and the budget for future funding.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS CONTROLACCESS TO CREDITACCESS TO ELECTRICITYACCESS TO FINANCEACCESS TO FINANCIAL SERVICESACCESS TO GRID ELECTRICITYACCESS TO LIGHTINGACCESS TO MARKETSACCESS TO MICRO-FINANCEACCESS TO MODERN ENERGYACCESS TO SERVICEACCESSIBILITYACTION PLANADVISORY SERVICESAFFORDABILITYAGRICULTURAL SECTORAPPROACHAPPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGYAUTOMOBILEAVAILABILITYBACK-UPBACKUPBALANCEBATTERIESBIASESBUREAUCRATIC RED TAPEBUSINESS ADVISORYBUSINESS CLIMATEBUSINESS DEVELOPMENTBUSINESS DEVELOPMENT SERVICESBUSINESS ENVIRONMENTBUSINESS IDEASBUSINESS OPPORTUNITIESBUSINESS PERFORMANCEBUSINESS PROCESSESBUSINESS STRATEGYBUSINESSESCALCULATIONCAPACITY BUILDINGCAPITAL ACCUMULATIONCAPITAL STOCKCELL PHONECELL PHONESCENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICTCOCOMMERCECOMMERCIAL ACTIVITIESCOMMERCIAL BUSINESSESCOMMUNITY BANKSCOMPETITORSCONSUMER DEMANDCONSUMER GOODSCOPYRIGHTCOST OF ELECTRICITYCOST OF ENERGYCULTURAL BARRIERSDATA ANALYSISDEMAND DENSITIESDEMAND FOR ELECTRICITYDIESELDIESEL GENERATORSECONOMIC ACTIVITYECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIC REFORMSELECTRICITY SUPPLYELECTRICITY USAGEELECTRIFICATIONEMPLOYEEEMPLOYMENTENERGY CONSUMPTIONENERGY DEMANDENERGY DEVELOPMENTENERGY INFRASTRUCTUREENERGY SOURCESENERGY USAGEENERGY USEENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENTENTREPRENEURSEQUIPMENTEXPANSIONEXPENDITUREFINANCIAL INSTITUTIONSFINANCIAL SERVICESFIRM SIZEFIRM SIZESFIRMSFUELFUEL PRICESGENERATING CAPACITYGENERATIONGENERATION CAPACITYGRID CONNECTIONGRID ELECTRICITYHOLDING COMPANYHOUSEHOLD ENERGYHOUSEHOLD INCOMEHOUSEHOLD WELFAREHOUSEHOLDSHYDRO POWERHYDROPOWERICTIMPACT ASSESSMENTIMPUTATIONINFORMATION ON INVESTMENTINPUT FACTORIRONKEY BENEFITLACK OF INFORMATIONLOAD SHEDDINGLOANLOCAL INDUSTRYMANUFACTURINGMANUFACTURING ENTERPRISEMANUFACTURING ENTERPRISESMARKET ACCESSMARKET PRICESMARKET SEGMENTMARKETINGMEDIUM ENTERPRISESMFIMICRO ENTERPRISESMICRO FINANCEMICRO FINANCE INSTITUTIONSMICRO-ENTERPRISEMICRO-ENTERPRISESMICRO-FINANCEMICROCREDITMICROCREDIT PROGRAMSMICROENTERPRISESMICROFINANCEMICROFINANCE INSTITUTIONSMICROFINANCE METHODOLOGIESMICROFINANCE PROGRAMSMISSING VALUESNEGATIVE IMPACTSNET WORTHNETWORKSNEW BUSINESSESOPERATING COSTSPETROLEUMPHONEPOWERPOWER SECTORPOWER SUPPLYPPPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTOR PARTICIPATIONPRODUCTIVE ENTERPRISEPRODUCTIVITYPROFITABILITYQUALITY OF SERVICERAW MATERIALSRELIABILITYRELIABILITY OF SUPPLYRESULTRESULTSRURAL ELECTRIFICATIONSAVINGSSAVINGS ACCOUNTSELF-EMPLOYMENTSERVICE PROVIDERSHOPSHOP OWNERSSHOPSSMALL BUSINESSSMALL BUSINESSESSMALL ENTERPRISESSMALL FARMERSSMESOURCE OF INFORMATIONSTART-UPSUPERVISIONSUPPLIERSUPPLY CHAINSUPPLY OF ELECTRICITYTARGETSTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETELECOMMUNICATIONTELECOMMUNICATIONSTELEPHONETELEPHONE SERVICESTELEPHONESTRANSACTIONTRANSACTION COSTSUSAGE OF ENERGYUSERSUSESUTILITIESUTILITY BILLVALUE CHAINSVENDORVILLAGEVILLAGESWINDFALL PROFITSWORKING CAPITALWORKING HOURSWorld Bank10.1596/12548
