Over the past 2 years following project effectiveness (August 21, 2017), the Implementing Agency has been progressing project implementation by undertaking the consultant selections, preparing product specifications and conducting training. However, implementation progress in terms of results has been slower than expected due to delays in approval of Solar Home Systems (SHS) and micro grids under component 1 and procurement of Owner's Engineer (OE) for mini grids under component 2. The sale of approved Solar Home Systems under Component 1 commenced from December 2018. The selection of an Owner's Engineer to support implementation of mini grids and other technical support consultants has been completed. The project performance is expected to improve over the next 12 months. Waste disposal regulations and standards on household wiring are behind schedule and will continue to require interim arrangements until they are adopted. The effectiveness of the interim arrangements will be reviewed as part of the Project Mid-Term Review planned to commence in November/December 2019.
