Summary: | The World Bank is responding well to its
clients’ demand for financing of transmission and
distribution projects. By helping to reduce losses,
encouraging the integration of renewable energy, and
expanding networks to increase supply, supported projects
will improve the financial health of utilities, service for
consumers, and economic growth. Regional interconnection
projects, in particular, are lowering the cost of power,
boosting reliability and shrinking the reserve requirements
imposed on generation systems. Private sector participation
and system wide analysis will be the keys to the success of
future projects. |
