Description
The World Bank wanted to develop recommendations for the Government of Tajikistan on how to ensure last-mile access to electricity in the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Oblast (GBAO) and Khatlon regions. These recommendations were to be informed by a technical and economic analysis that identified technically feasible and economically least cost solutions for last-mile access in the specified regions, and an investment plan for electrification of target settlements to meet their projected energy demand in 2020-2035.
