Lesson
Misperceptions about the new technologies being can adversely affect their adoption. A misperception among postpaid customers that prepaid meters would lead to increased electricity costs resulted in lower-than-expected migration postpaid to prepaid meters.

Awareness-raising and capacity building on the safe and efficient use of electricity, and skills training in energy facilities, have several important benefits. In Madhya Pradesh, industrial and high-voltage power consumers cross-subsidize the cost of supply so that agricultural and domestic consumers pay less. To ensure this benefit and make people aware of the safety hazards on the misuse of the high voltage transmission and distribution systems, an extensive public awareness campaign was undertaken. People were also trained in the use of facilities.

A well-thought-out project communications plan, backed by local capacity building, is needed for the successful implementation of projects in FSM. Information is often not widely shared in the FSM, and securing support for reforms can be particularly complex in this context. The Chuuk Public Utilities Corporation was able to effectively carry out its communications and outreach activities and secure support for reforms with the help of a well-defined operation, maintenance, and management contract. Project delays affected the momentum of activities in the other three states.

Sound project design requires adequate technical input and open communication with key participants and/or stakeholders. Greater technical input was necessary to appraise the government’s proposed components during project preparation. Specifically, the design flaws in output 2, credit lines for biogas value chains and other climate-smart agriculture waste management investments, would have been avoided if the processing team had access to livestock, environmental, and institutional specialists with appropriate country knowledge to support the financial management specialist.
