Note: Disbursement data provided is cumulative and covers disbursement made by the project Agency.All the people of Eswatini stand to benefit from accelerated investments in clean energy. All taxpayers and electricity users stand to benefit from more cost-effective ways to deliver clean energy to end users. More specifically, rural communities currently without access to electricity will benefit from solutions that will enable affordable, clean energy to be delivered to their communities as well as the multiple, broader socio-economic benefits that will accrue, including a healthier environment, opportunities for income generating activities and improved management of natural resources. Very directly, the specific communities in Eswatini who will be the recipients of the pilot projects will benefit from access to clean energy and the multiple associated socio-economic benefits to their communities. Both pilot communities will be engaged in the design of the pilot initiatives and the selection of productive uses. Across all outputs, at least 459 beneficiaries are expected to benefit directly as recipients of electricity access, recipients of small businesses support and/or subsidized electrical appliances, recipients of training, as participants in the regional Community of Practice, participants in National Dialogue and participants in the national knowledge network. Guidance from the Gender Analysis and Action Plan will help ensure that gender equity and empowerment remain a key part of the project implementation, while disaggregated indicators as well as monitoring and reporting will enable an understanding of gender specific impacts that can inform improved future planning and decision-making. Particular attention will be given to strengthening the role of women as beneficiaries, decision-makers, participants, management and ownership of mini-grid systems or energised end-uses as detailed in the gender action plan. Socio-economic impacts will also be tracked more broadly for both pilot projects to allow refinements and inform future planning and decision-making. By linking this information back to the appropriate forums and specifically to inform the development of the Mini-grid Roadmap and Vision, benefits can be replicated and enhanced in future mini-grid developments. The overall program is expected to mitigate significant amounts of CO2 emissions and will be accompanied by co-benefits. At the national level, direct and consequential (indirect) emission reductions are expected to occur. The lifetime global environmental benefits that will accrue from the adoption of clean energy minigrid technologies is estimated at 2,444 tCO2e. Indirect emission reductions amounting to 54,000 tCO2e are expected due to investments in minigrids completed during the 10-year influence period following project completion, predominantly through the replication of the sustainable technology value chain. An additional 6000 tCO2e are allocated to the AMP regional child project out of an overall 54,000 tCO2e for this country.Global Environment Facility UNDP Ministry of Natural Resources and Energy (MNRE) CEO Approval Date Actual Implementation Start Date Expected Completion Date ' Eswatini +![cdata[Energy generation, renewable sources - multiple technologies]]+ +![cdata[Electric power transmission and distribution (isolated mini-grids)]]+ 287747.33 287747.33 287747.33 167266 UNDP Ministry of Natural Resources and Energy (MNRE) 194549 UNDP Ministry of Natural Resources and Energy (MNRE) 863242 GEF XI-BRIDGE-6385676864-10695 Global Environment Facility To promote ecosystem restoration for a productive Mbuluzi River landscape and effectively managed protected areas providing critical ecosystem goods and services Note: Disbursement data provided is cumulative and covers disbursement made by the project Agency.The project will provide benefits globally, nationally and locally. This project will enhance the capacity for implementation of a robust framework to manage land and biodiversity degradation in Eswatini. By strengthening Eswatini’s strategies, mechanisms, and institutions for land restoration and natural resource management at the national level, globally significant biodiversity and landscapes will be protected, and livelihoods strengthened. The strengthening of land and biodiversity management will contribute to the development of social inclusion and gender equality, foster clear and transparent provisions and strengthen the capacity for local communities to benefit from their landscape and biodiversity, thereby generating opportunities for themselves. This will also have benefits to the local communities immediately impacted by land degradation, including those deriving livelihoods from forest, protected areas and agricultural ecosystems, directly through production, or indirectly such as through tourism and ecosystem services. Additional domestic benefits generated over the baseline case will be as a result of reduced impact of climate change on economic activity. Further benefits will accrue through replication of the approaches used at the pilot sites to other sites in the country. The approach used in the project as a whole will also provide lessons and opportunities for replication in other countries in Africa.

It will strengthen multi-stakeholder platforms that will ensure active participation and representation of all key stakeholders, including women and youth. This project will enhance the financing mechanisms, leading to greater access to credit for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises. It will facilitate the development of insurance products tailored for local farmers. The project will also improve innovation and extension systems to help smallholders and SMEs access sustainable technologies and practices, particularly those addressing post-harvest losses and waste in value chains. Market access for sustainably produced food stand to be greatly enhanced by the project as it aims to form agribusiness clusters that will benefit smallholders, women, and youth farmers. to integrate smallholder producers, especially marginalized women and youth, into mainstream markets.
