Findings
NEAs SEP:
cost efficiency ratio: Php530,809 per sitio
or Php26,729 per household in 2011
cannot be compared with other programs
because this is the first time that a sitio
electrification program was implemented
DOEs HEP:
cost efficiency ratios: Php11,100 to
Php14,500 per 25Wp PV (solar) system;
Php18,300 to Php20,700 per 50Wp PV
system; Php25,400 to Php27,700 per
75Wp PV system
average cost per unit: Php35,913 per
household.
more cost efficient than the BEP (19992009) program which has average cost of
Php42,029 per HH in 2010 prices
Findings
Benchmarking relative to targets
NEAs SEP:
2011 target: 1,500 sitios
2011 accomplishment: 1,520
sitios
DOEs HEP:
2011 target: 2,000 households
2011 accomplishment: 2,750
households
Both SEP and HEP have
surpassed their respective targets.

Recommendations
Note: Expanded Rural Electrification Team
(ER Team)
set-up in 2003 and reconstituted
in 2006; currently inactive
fat bureaucratic setup; quite
expansive ER Team with many
established groups and
committees
Recommendations
Use household connections rather than
sitios in target-setting and monitoring;
sitios can be used as identifiers
Include local economic development in the
prioritization criteria
On the connection fee acting as a barrier
to the poor:
Include in the criteria: electric coop
or community association to show
evidence of having an affordable
amortization package for the initial
connection fees of households
Recommendations
Come up with strategies to boost
absorptive capacity of electric coops
given the acceleration of meeting the
targets
Continued (but more targeted) rural
electrification given its poverty reduction
impact
Thank you!
