Provide rural off-grid energy services in a sustainable manner using Renewable Energy Systems (RES) where feasible. 2. Support the expansion of private participation in the provision of electricity in rural areas and strengthen provincial governments' capacities to regulate that participation. 3. Advance the reform of the energy sector in particular critical areas such as transmission, distribution, and marketing of electricity; policy on energy efficiency; strategy on RES technology; and regional integration. 4. Promote commercial operation of Wind Home Systems (WHS). 5. Improve knowledge on the application of RES. 6. Global GEF objectives: 6.1 Promote the adoption of RES by removing market barriers and reducing implementation costs; and 6.1 Reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The project's mid-term review confirmed the validity of the above objectives. Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Program? Yes No AR-RENEWABLE ENERGY IN RURAL MARKETS (P045048) Global Environmental Objective (from Project Appraisal Document) Global GEF objectives are to: a) remove market barriers to application, implementation and dissemination of renewable energy sources; and b) reduce greenhouse gas emissions by replacing small-diesel electricity generation an the use of candles, kerosene and gas cylinders and in lighting and other domestic uses with renewable energy systems. The project's mid-term review confirmed the validity of the above objectives. Has the Global Environmental Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Program? Yes No Page 1 of 7
