Lesson
Lessons learned from earlier interventions need to be incorporated during implementation. An earlier PPER for the Madhya Pradesh Power Sector Development Program implemented from 2002 to 2007 had highlighted the need to reduce AT&C losses by improving billing and collection efficiency and discouraging electricity theft by taking legal action against pilferers as a necessary follow-up to ensure financial sustainability.

Lesson
Multitranche financing facility design, when appropriate, can also bring benefits to the rural poor. The MFF enabled augmentation of the transmission and distribution system. The energy supplied to consumers has increased by a factor of 2.3 in 13 years (Table 3). Through initiatives taken by the government, there was increase in supply to rural areas with more low-income households. The consumption in rural areas increased by a factor of 2.1 from 13,891 GWh in FY2012 to 29,180 GWh in FY2019.

Lesson
Flexibility of multitranche financing facility design and process contributes to greater efficiency and harmonization of funds in the sector. As the MFF was implemented concurrently with several other initiatives to improve the state’s electrical distribution systems (para. 12), it was essential for each successive tranche to be specifically designed to fill gaps not covered by the various ongoing schemes to ensure the best use of the ADB loan funds.
