The PPP model can help finance relatively large infrastructure projects that directly increase export and government revenue. This approach is particularly relevant in developing countries with weak private sector participation in infrastructure and which lack the capacity for commercial borrowing because of debt sustainability considerations. Some examples of countries in a similar situation are the Kyrgyz Republic, the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Nepal, and Tajikistan where large hydropower potential can be developed to increase their power exports using the PPP model.

The project was the first tranche of the first MFF investment program developed in the PRC.17 Based on the experience from this project, the MFF modality should be suitable for future projects in the PRC where there are discrete components. The MFF enabled sequential construction and financing requirements that were funded by separate tranches, thus limiting unnecessary duplication of administrative effort and approvals.
