Scaling-Up Renewable Energy Program (SREP): Investment Plan for Haiti

SREP is the Climate Investment Funds window for scaling up renewable energy in low-income countries, and a country investment plan is the document that sets out where the money would go. This is Haiti's, dated 27 March 2015, and it carries an unusually candid status note: the text was still under review by the Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Communications and was therefore a provisional version, to be published in final form only after approval and translation into French. Its presence in the CIAT's library rather than only the energy ministry's is itself informative, since energy access is a territorial question in Haiti: where generation is sited and which settlements a mini-grid reaches determines which places can support economic activity. The World Bank project whose resettlement framework appears elsewhere in this collection, Renewable Energy Services for All (P156719), is the operational descendant of this planning work.
