The program objective consists of two key projects; a governance reform project which aims to develop more effective, accountable, and transparent power sector governance in The Gambia and an operational project, which seeks to improve the NAWEC’s capability to operate the Gambia’s power system in a manner that reduces the frequency and duration of outages consistent with The Gambia’s universal access and conditional emissions goals as put forward in its nationally determined contributions (“NDCs”).
