Sustainable Energy Services for Education and Health in Afghanistan (SESEHA)
Overview:
The project supports adoption of renewable energy and energy efficiency measures in public facilities (primarily in health and education sectors) for sustained delivery of essential services for basic human needs in Afghanistan. Between 2023 and 2027, a total of 1,347 health and educational facilities across 19 provinces are targeted. These facilities are either not connected to the national grid or receive less than six hours of electricity per day on average, significantly constraining the delivery of public services.
The project’s interventions are in the following three areas that have been integrated into the results framework with three corresponding outputs:
Objectives:
- Improving the supply of decentralized renewable energy-based electricity and energy efficiency measures for education facilities
- Improving the supply of decentralized renewable energy-based electricity and energy efficiency measures for health facilities
- Support to O&M of decentralized renewable energy systems through appropriate service delivery models and capacity building/ training, with a special focus on training for women in energy sectors.
Major Achievements
- Provided renewable energy and energy efficiency solutions to 19 provinces that lacked reliable and affordable electricity, affecting the quality of essential services in public facilities.
- Targeted 1,347 public facilities, comprising 1,024 educational and 323 health facilities, based on technical criteria, to install and maintain renewable energy systems.
- Completed 470 facilities, comprising 126 health facilities and 344 educational facilities, ensuring the sustained delivery of health care and education services.
