This report summarizes the Bolivian
power sector reform experience from 1993 until the end of
1999. The reform of Bolivia's electric sector is
considered one of the most successful to date. Bolivia opted
for both vertical and horizontal separation. Large power
company generations units were capitalized; transmission
grid and distribution were privatized. Since the
capitalization or privatization, there has been a dramatic
expansion in generation capacity, and distribution networks
are also growing well. However, access to electricity
remains limited. The main issues in the sector are now a)
privatizing the smaller systems, and b) expanding access in
the under-served rural areas. A review will be essential
after a few years of implementation. The effect of power
sector reform on poverty alleviation will need to be
assessed at that point. |
