The Additional Financing will enable to scale up the 6/24/2019 Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Emergency Water and Electricity Services Upgrading Project (P148797) impact of the parent Project by financing new or rehabilitation of infrastructures in water and energy to enable to improve access to water and electricity services in Bissau, but also to start the reform process of EAGB, with the support of a private operator, through a Service Contract. The activities conducted so far under the parent project already enabled to have an impact on the ground: - For electricity, most of the 10 kV underground cables have already been installed, tested and commissioned in Bissau’s downtown. Eight substations have been upgraded from 6 kV to 10 kV and rehabilitated with new transformers. The network protection cells purchased under the project have been installed at EAGB’s central substation, tested and transferred to EAGB. The replacement of the damaged cells is expected to increase the amount of electricity that EAGB will be able to distribute safely to its customers. All these activities contributed to improve the electricity distribution. In addition, over 11,000 pre-paid meters have been installed. - For water, new boreholes have been constructed which contributed to improve the water services (increase of water production by 37%) and its reliability as most of the boreholes have now a dedicated electrical line, and are secured with a back-up generator. 86 public stand posts and 3,562 private connections have already been constructed and connected to the network to enable more than 50,000 additional people to have access to safe water. For activities planned under AF, the consultant for detailed technical studies (water and energy) has been recruited, bidding documents should be ready by July 2019 to launch a new series of works which could start in December 2019. The consultant in charge of the elaboration of ESIAs and RAPs (if needed) has been recruited and works closely with the technical consultant to minimize impacts on the ground. For energy, the Project supported different activities that can significantly improve the financial sustainability of EAGB, increase EAGB’s bill collection rate, help reduce commercial losses, and also to assess solar energy potential. EAGB signed a power purchase agreement with Karpowership (Turkey) for the supply of electricity produced by a floating barge with a capacity of 17 - 30 MW with heavy fuel oil. The complete shift of the country’s power generation mix is expected to enable EAGB’s savings between US$ 700,000 - 1 million monthly and therefore improve the financial sustainability of the national utility. Activities planned under AF to support the improvement of EAGB started and are now well on track, with the private operator (EDP/ADP/LBCS – Portuguese firms) now on board to provide support to EAGB, and should take the management of EAGB in few months, and a 1st phase of adaptation and also diagnostic of the sector.
