50 How can we improve our ability to monitor SDGs?

51 ENERGY ACCESS

52 SDG7 explicitly emphasizes multi-dimensional attributes of energy access: affordable, reliable, modern Ensure Electricity Capacity Duration Cooking solutions Cookstove/fuel Access to Affordable Electricity Affordability Cooking solutions Affordability Electricity Reliability (outages) Quality (voltage) Legality/safety Cooking solutions Quality of Fuel Availability of Fuel Safety Reliable Modern Cooking Solution Convenience Efficiency Cleanness energy for all (SDG 7.1) (Legality; Health and Safety)

53 This highlights the importance of thinking beyond connections to fully understand energy access 5

54 Energy access is better defined as a continuum of different service levels

55 Multi-tier Framework for access to electricity Tier-rating for the household is calculated by applying the lowest of the tierratings across all attributes

56 Kinshasa pilot shows multi-tier framework gives a much more nuanced picture of energy access 56

57 Conventional measures of energy access fail to capture many important dimensions of service quality Electricity Source Capacity Duration Duration Source Source 24 Hours (hours) Evening (hours) NO ACCESS 10% SHS 2% OTHER 1% NO ACCESS 10% SHS 2% OTHER 1% 8h-16h 23% 16h- 22h 9% >22h 6% <4h 23% >4h 41% <1h 9% 1h-2h 18% GRID 87% GRID 87% 4h-8h 39% 2h-4h 32% Reliability Quality Affordability Legality Duration of interruptions (mins) Low Voltage problems Index: Index: None 38% >30 mins 46% Good voltage 15% Not Afforda ble 2% Not Legal 2% <10 mins 5% mins 11% Low Voltage 85% Afforda ble 98% Legal 98% Less than 8 hours per day for 62% of the household Unscheduled interruptions are longer than 30 minutes for more than 57% of the household Almost 85% of the household experienced low voltage 57

58 Multi Tier Framework clarifies which interventions can boost access levels Gap analysis at Glance: 12.6% households are not connected to electricity grid at all. These households need to be provided electricity connections. 27% households are constrained by less than eight hours of supply per day, and less than 3 hours of supply in the evening. 23% households are affected by voltage problems and are stuck at Tier-3. Only about 1% households have access to good electricity. 58

59 Multi-Tier Framework can be implemented through two different survey based approaches MTF Energy Global Survey MTF Energy module integrated in National Surveys* Estimated time: 45 mins Estimated time: 15 mins Nationally statistically representative Rural/Urban Provides data for multi-tier Supply and Demand information Implemented by a local survey firm supervised by WB team Need to collaborate with National Statistical Office TA and training available and funded by SREP/ESMAP Key supply and demand information allowing tier calculation Additional simplification of monitoring being tested e.g. use of cell phone surveys Need to collaborate with National Statistical Office * Collaboration with the World Bank survey group

60 First Global Energy Access Survey based on Multi-Tier Framework already underway Country selection factors Highest electricity access deficit Highest modern cooking deficit Focusing on SREP countries Regional balance Government s interest MTF already started: Ethiopia, Kenya, Liberia MTF in the pipeline: Niger, Nigeria, Rwanda

61 Multi-Tier Framework for access to clean cooking (1/2) Framework developed in close discussion with WHO, Berkley Air Monitoring Group and Global Alliance Framework is conducive to nationally different standards for cook-stoves, as well as development of a framework for DALYs 61

62 Multi-Tier Framework for access to clean cooking (2/2) 62

64 An agenda for improvement on indicators for sustainability of renewable energy Major efforts needed to develop measures of sustainability for traditional biomass usage

65 ENERGY EFFICIENCY

66 An agenda for improvement on energy efficiency indicators and underlying data Major efforts needed to improve availability of energy output metrics for major sectors Transport efficiency Buildings efficiency Manufacturing efficiency Vehicle kilometers? Area in Square meters? Physical units of production?
