ASSIGNMENT OVERVIEW
Assignment Title: 1267123 - Peru Rural Electrification Planning and Sustainable Electrification Approaches Assessment
Assignment Countries:

- Peru
ASSIGNMENT DESCRIPTION
Peru has made important strides in expanding rural electricity coverage from 31 to 84 percent between 2006 and 2017. However, more work is needed to achieve universal access and cover the `last mile` as there are still an estimated 500, 000 households without electricity access in Peru. Closing the electrification gap will involve serving remote, sparsely populated, and poor rural areas, especially in the Andean and Amazon regions, which remains an important challenge.
There are many options to consider to close the gap, such as extension and densification of the existing network, use of renewable technologies, and mini-grid and hybrid systems. There is also an opportunity to adopt newer generation solar home systems which include efficient appliances and mini-grids that have technological advancements such as storage. These technologies have been used in other countries and can provide a level of service comparable to that of grid connection at much lower costs than feasible in the past. However, they have not been deployed to scale in Peru. Assessment work to determine the suitability and cost-effectiveness of utilizing different technologies and configurations is needed to inform decision making regarding future rural electrification investments. There is also potential for Peru to adopt smart meter, PAYGo, and other measures, which could reduce the costs of servicing rural energy systems and at the same time help with ensuring a payment culture to improve collections. However, these are new and mostly untested approaches for Peru. Thus a review of successful global and Peruvian models that may be suitable for closing the country`s remaining electrification gap is needed.
In this context, the Ministry of Energy and Mines (MINEM) has requested rural electrification planning support from the World Bank.
The objective of this consultancy is to provide analytical support to the World Bank to help the Bank support Peru to define the best way to advance its rural electrification goals through: i) rural electrification planning support using geospatial tools to identify optimal technological alternatives for expanding access to electricity in priority regions of Peru, and ii) assessment of sustainable approaches for providing rural electricity services and identification of suitable models for the priority areas of Peru.
