The survey was designed to characterize energy use in existing institutions, commercial enterprises and households before electrification and, thereby, set a baseline for monitoring and evaluation of the impacts of the project going forward. The report begins with a summary of the survey s main findings. It continues with an introduction describing the background of the project. Section 1 presents an estimation of electrification s benefits using the household survey data. Section 2 discusses recommendations for ongoing monitoring and evaluation of the project.
