4 I. PROJECT STATUS AND RATIONALE FOR RESTRUCTURING 1. The Project Development Objective (PDO) is to improve reliability, efficiency and access to modern energy services in the Recipient s territory. The Global Environment Objective (GEO) is to enhance standards and labels for efficient light bulbs and air-conditioners in Benin, and to introduce efficient light bulbs to households through a bulk procurement scheme and awareness program. The project was approved on June 23, 2009 and became effective on April 30, The project supports different areas of intervention including transmission development, distribution reinforcement, on-grid rural electrification, and energy efficiency and biomass components. It was initially supported by nine donors (International Development Association [IDA], German Reconstruction Credit Institute (Kreditanstalt fur Wiederaufbau [KfW], European Investment Bank [EIB], Global Environment Fund [GEF] (TF94664), Norway Trust Fund [FFEM] (TF signed between Norway and the Government of Benin [GoB]), Electricity Sector Management Assistance Program [ESMAP] (TF99823), from Electric Community of Benin (Communaute Electrique du Benin CEB) and Distribution Company in Benin (Société Beninoise d Enérgie Eléctrique- SBEE, and GoB) with an original total financing of US$ million equivalent. The initial contribution from IDA was in the amount of US$70 million equivalent. Following the two restructurings in November 06, 2013 and May 12, 2016, the total IDA funding to the project was reduced to US$54.50 million equivalent. The counterpart contribution was initially of US$61.6 million equivalent, of which US$51.85 million equivalent is from GoB; US$8.25 million equivalent from CEB; and US$1.50 million equivalent from SBEE. The GoB s contribution was revised to US$1.85 million equivalent during the restructuring of November 2013 since it was not able to secure the funding. The contributions from other donors are as follows: EIB - US$23.09 million equivalent; KfW - US$18.70 million; GEF-TF US$1.3million; Free-standing Co-financing Trust Fund (FSCO, ESMAP -TF99823) - US$2 million equivalent, and FFEM (Norway TF) US$1.30 million. 2. The project has been restructured four times previously. First restructuring was done on October 12, 2011 to clarify the activities to be co-financed with the Africa Renewable Energy Access Trust Fund. The second one was processed in November 2013 to cancel activities under the IDA Credit that had not advanced (amounting to US$15.62 million equivalent in cancelled funds) and to extend the closing date of the IDA Credit from June 30, 2015 to June 30, The third restructuring dated June 26, 2015 extended the closing date of the GEF component to June 30, 2016 to align with the closing date of the IDA Credit. The fourth and the last took place on May 13, 2016 to reallocate proceeds to cover cost overruns, to revise the project results framework and to extend the closing date of the IDA Credit to June 30, The PDO and GEO have remained relevant and unchanged throughout the life of the project. 3. The project has the following components: Component A - Electrical Network Up-grading; Component B - Electrification and Modern Energy Services; Component C - Sustainable Energy Services; and Component D: Project Preparation 1. The Component A and B are co-financed by IDA and other donors whereas Component C and D are entirely financed by IDA. 1 As per the November 25, 2013 amendment of the Financing Agreement signed on July 13, 2009

Implementation progress 8. The Implementation Status and Results (ISR) reports of June 2017 and January 2018 rated both the progress of the project toward achievement of the PDO and GEO and its implementation progress as Moderately Satisfactory. 9. Component A - Electrical Network Up-grading: The main outstanding commitment of the project is under the Component A particularly the construction of the 161kV Onigbolo-Parakou transmission line. The construction of the Onigbolo-Parakou 161 kv transmission line - the remaining ongoing activity of the transmission and distribution component of the project - has experienced delay because (i) the contractor experienced difficulties in mobilizing qualified workers which slowed down progress; and (ii) CEB was unable to fully settle compensation payments. As of September 2017, the contractor was able to mobilize an adequate team and civil works are progressing well. On that basis, CEB has requested the extension of the project to complete the work. A.1 Construction of electrical transmission interconnection between Onigbolo and Parakou and provision of and installation of protection and relaying equipment: The following activities were fully completed: (i) construction of

7 161/63/20-15 kv substation and installation of transformers at Onigbolo; (ii) extension of the 161kV substation at Parakou; and (iii) the expansion and modernization of substations at Ouando, Gbégamey, and Sakété. The construction of the 280 km transmission lines from Onigbolo to Parakou has advanced but has not yet been completed due to initial contractual issues impacting the mobilization of workers. CEB and the contractor have resolved the contractual issues and all the equipment and line accessories arrived on site. The foundations for 638 towers out of a total of 681 as well as 7 km of lines were completed. Although compensation payments slowed down the construction works due to initial financial difficulties of CEB, it has recently managed to secure the necessary amount to regularize the few outstanding compensation payments. The revised implementation plan prepared by the contractor and validated by the Owner s Engineer shows that this transmission line would be completed by August During the last supervision mission in March 2018, the team agreed with the Project Coordination Unit (PCU) on the implementation of the following actions: (i) accelerating the settlement of outstanding compensation payments to allow the completion of works; (ii) strengthening the social safeguard team at CEB; and (iii) extending the contract of the Owner s Engineer to be consistent with the revised project implementation plan. A4. Rehabilitation and reinforcement of the SBEE electrical distribution network in major urban centers in Benin with a view to improving the quality of power supplied. All the rehabilitation and upgrading works were completed including the installation of 44,700 prepayment meters. A5. Improving lighting and appliance efficiency in urban areas for households that already have access to electricity. 350,000 CFLs were distributed; norms and standard for Lamps and domestic Air-Conditioner were elaborated; and a testing laboratory for Lamps was installed and is functional. The end targets for these activities have been met. 10. Component B Electrification and Modern Energy Services: The intermediate indicators for this component have been achieved. However, the PDO indicator regarding People provided with new or improved electricity services that this component contributes has not yet been achieved because the construction of the Onigbolo-Parakou transmission line has not been completed.

8 11. The electrification of the following sites Bariénou Sikki Guessou Bani Dérassi Tantéga Tétonga were completed. The Rural Electrification and Mastery of Energy Agency in Benin (ABERME) was installed at the new site and the institution benefited from technical assistance missions. Regarding the biomass, a forest management plan covering 300,000 ha in the Moyen Oueme region was elaborated and the implementation of the plan has commenced. In addition, the setting in place of rural markets for fuel wood is being achieved. Moreover, 560 beneficiaries received training on improved carbonization and logging techniques. As a result of the project, 20,000 new households have access to gas cooking equipment and 10,000 to improved cookstoves. With the support of the project the legal, regulatory and incentive framework for the promotion of biofuel was established. This component also provided support to rural communities in logging areas to diversify income-generating activities. 12. Component C Sustainable Energy Services: This component finances (i) the environmental management audit of the Nangbeto dam, the development of standard bidding document for Independent Power Producers (IPPs), and the design and implementation of monitoring and evaluation system for CEB projects. All of these activities were completed; (ii) the audit of SBEE management, and technical assistance to improve the financial management of SBEE. The assessment of human resource management at SBEE was completed. In addition, performance improvement action plan was developed for the Accounting and Budget Department at SBEE; (iii) capacity building to the regulation of the electricity sector; and (iv) key studies for the development of the sector. Electricity sector master plan was elaborated. Environmental and social management frameworks and impact assessments were also developed. The end-targets for Component C have been achieved. 13. Component D Project Preparation: The updating of the ESIA and RAP for the Adjarala hydro generation project was completed under this component. The preparation of studies for transmission and distribution projects is at advanced stage and will be completed by June 30, PDO and GEO indicators 14. Regarding the IDA PDO indicators on Power losses in Benin s transmission networks, the actual value is 58 GWh against a target of 24 GWh (January 2018). This indicator showed higher value of energy losses mainly due to the delay in the completion of the 161 kv Onigbolo-Parakou transmission line. Once the Onigbolo-Parakou transmission line is completed, this target would be achieved. On the indicator Direct project beneficiaries the project has benefited 900,000 people so far against an end target of 1,200, This indicator is expected to be achieved once the Onigbolo- Parakou transmission line is commissioned. In terms of People provided with new or improved electricity services the actual value was 3,500,000 vs an end target value of 3,900,000. The number of people with improved electricity services would increase once the Onigbolo-Parakou transmission line is commissioned and the end target would be met. The indicator Electricity losses per year in the project area has not been yet achieved with an actual value of 24 percent against a target value of 20 percent also due to the non-completion of the transmission lines. Lastly, the PDO indicator Benin transmission networks response to (N-1) criteria (redundancy) is not yet achieved again due to the delay in the completion of the Onigbolo-Parakou transmission line. 15. The GEO indicators regarding the development and application of efficiency standard for appliances, and the target of installation of 350,000 CFLs have been achieved. 16. The detailed results frameworks as of January 2018 are provided in the Section IV of this Project Paper. Project Disbursement

9 17. Overall, the implementation progress of the project is estimated at 99 percent provided the construction of the Onigbolo-Parakou 161 kv transmission line of 280 km would be completed as proposed by this project extension. As of April 30, 2018, the project disbursed a total amount of US$47.94 million equivalent which represents about 90 percent of the total financing. The project commitment ratio for the same period is about 99 percent. With the commissioning of the Onigbolo-Parakou 161 kv transmission line by August 2018 and the completion of other ongoing activities, the project would disburse about 99 percent of the total funding. Rationale for closing date extension 18. The extension of the closing date is critical to enhance the prospect for full achievement of the PDO. The completion of the Onigbolo-Parakou transmission line, together with the reinforcement of substations already completed under the project, would increase the reliability of transmission networks in Benin and reduce the transmission power losses. As a result, power import interruptions would be reduced and Benin s ability to import reliable, efficient and cheaper generation from neighboring countries would be improved in the medium and long run. This is in line with the World Bank s support to promote regional integration in West Africa. With the support of the Owner s Engineer, CEB has accelerated the construction of works but due to the initial delay, the completion will go beyond the current closing date of June 30, The GoB has requested a twelve-month extension of the project closing date to June 30, 2019 in their letter dated March 2018 but following the assessment done by the team, an extension of the closing date by six months to December 31, 2018 is reasonable (i) to give sufficient time to CEB to complete the works and to address technical discrepancies that may arise during commissioning of the line; and (ii) to allow CEB and the PCU to implement the action plan agreed with the World Bank related to the project requirement on safeguard monitoring and audit discussed during the World Bank s supervision mission in March 2018 including the strengthening of the social safeguard capacity at CEB to consolidate documents and information related to compensation that CEB completed under the project. In addition, the proposed extension would allow the World Bank to respond to a request from Government to provide a technical assistance to conduct an analysis on the West Africa Gas Pipeline (WAGP) and commission a study on the economic and social impact of electricity supply improvement in Benin. These analyses are critical inputs into the least cost generation plan and tariff study respectively. 19. The Task Team confirms that World Bank s requirements under World Bank Directive for Investment Project Financing (IPF) are met, namely, (i) the project objectives continue to be achievable; (ii) the performance of the Borrower remains satisfactory; (iii) the World Bank and the Borrower agree on actions that will be undertaken by the Borrower to complete the project; and (iv) there are no outstanding audits, or interim financial reports (IFR) for the credit. CEB and the PCU, with the support of the Owner s Engineer, have agreed on an action plan to be implemented by the contractor to complete the construction of the Onigbolo-Parakou transmission line by August 30, The implementation plan is attached to the restructuring paper with the Government request letter. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CHANGES The following three changes are proposed: (i) extension of closing date; (ii) revision of the target dates of the results framework to align with the proposed extension of closing date; (iii) correction on the description of the component A1 (a); and (iii) change in implementation schedule.
