N°244.19/MPSIR-CAB), the project has been restructured a fourth time in October 2019. IBRD loan number 84450 was reduced from US$ 45 million to US$ 35 million, and the result framework was updated accordingly. The PDO, to increase access to basic infrastructure services, safe drinking water and electricity for the inhabitants of targeted areas in the cities of Brazzaville and Pointe-Noire, remains unchanged. 12/24/2019 Page 1 of 10 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Rep. of Congo - Water, Electricity & Urban Development SIL (LEN) (P106975) Given the withdrawal of the Recipient’s contribution, the remaining Bank resources were allocated to finance priority activities that contribute the most to the achievement of the PDO including: (i) upgrading of the distribution network (feeders, transformers), (ii) improving the operational and commercial performance of the national electric utility, and (iii) assistance to the reform of power and water sectors. To date, the project has benefitted 1,467,000 people, of which 880,000 are female 331,710 inhabitants in the poorest neighborhoods have access to all season roads due to the rehabilitation of urban roads under the Project in Brazzaville and Pointe Noire. 185,000 people have access to improved health services in targeted areas. In the water sector, 259,340 people have access to safe drinking water. In the electricity sector, 351,360 people have improved access to electricity, notably thanks to the recently concluded feeders’ construction. In terms of infrastructure and urban services, the project has achieved the rehabilitation of 32 km of urban roads, school infrastructure and the construction of health centers, erosion control, the preparation of the preliminary draft of the urban code, the finalization of urban master plans for Brazzaville and Pointe Noire. Implementation progress is moderately satisfactory. Component 1 Urban infrastructure and services and Component 2 Urban Water Supply. Major activities are completed with a disbursement rate close to 97%. Component 3. Electricity Sector Reform. All major ongoing and remaining activities are under this component financed by the Additional Financing. Sub-component 3.3. Upgrading of the National Electricity Company (SNE) Electricity Distribution and Transmission System. The implementation of the upgrading works of the distribution networks continued to progress, albeit with some delays. The construction of 16 feeders in Brazzaville and Pointe Noire are now completed. The construction works of the last large contract (construction of 20 new substations) is progressing well, with all civil works completed and equipment delivery in progress. However, there are serious delays with the two other large contracts for the rehabilitation of 40 substations in the two cities, with only 60% execution rate for civil works in Brazzaville and 80% in Pointe-Noire. Solutions are being explored with the contractor to ensure that works are completed before the project closes in December 2020. Sub-Component 3.4. Improving the Operational Performance of SNE in Key Business Areas. Under the last restructuring, the remaining activities under this component were canceled. Sub-component 3.5. Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building. Activities are on-going, including physical inventory of assets of the electricity utility (E2C) and water utility LCDE, and the finalization of client database for the water utility. In addition, other activities were included: i) drafting of the network code for third-party access; ii) workshop to explore options for distribution; iii) mapping of water auto-producers in Pointe- Noire; iv) capacity building for Ministry and utilities; and v) procurement of spare parts for the 9 feeders recently installed in Pointe-Noire.
