Projected Economic Benefits and Beneficiaries. The Government and MCC have conducted an economic analysis of each Project to determine the cost effectiveness of the planned investments.

Each are described below, as well as key risks and assumptions.
Projected Economic Benefits and Beneficiaries. (a) Economic Rates of Return
Projected Economic Benefits and Beneficiaries. The economic analysis for this Compact utilizes a consumer surplus approach to estimate the net benefits of the Program. The data for the economic analysis comes from a nationwide survey of over 5,700 households and businesses of their willingness to pay for electrical power. A key finding of the survey was the presence of a large secondary market for electricity in Benin, which accounts for nearly one-third of all household connections nationwide. The secondary market is a function of the high cost of and delay in connecting to the grid, and in those markets neighbors sell to neighbors at, in some cases, twice the price charged by the utility. The current estimated Program-level economic rate of return (“ERR”) is 12 percent. Key parameters influencing the ERR include the willingness to pay for electric power in secondary markets. The M&E Plan will also define in detail the persons or entities expected to benefit from the Program. Beneficiary analysis is an extension of economic rate of return analysis that seeks to disaggregate the total increase in income to determine specifically which segments of society will benefit from the Compact Projects and Activities. MCC considers beneficiaries1 of Projects and Activities to be those people who experience better standards of living as a result of the Project or Activity (as the case may be) through higher real incomes. Over the life of the Compact, 1,968,668 households (approximately 9.8 million people) are expected to benefit from the Program. The ratio between the present value of benefits and the present value of costs for the Program is US$1.11. Of that amount, US$0.04 benefit the “extremely poor”, US$0.03 benefit the “poor”, US$0.47 benefit the “near poor”, and US$0.57 benefit the “not poor”2. Of the US$1.11, US$0.83 benefit people with direct connections to the SBEE network, while US$0.28 benefit consumers in secondary markets in which direct customers of SBEE sell electricity to their neighbors. The M&E Plan will also outline key assumptions and risks that underlie the accomplishment of the theory of change summarized in the Program logic. However, such assumptions and risks will not excuse any Party’s performance unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by the other Party. With respect to the Policy Reform and Institutional Strengthening Project, the assumptions are: • ARE has the capability and autonomy required to fulfill its regulatory responsibilities; • A tariff policy and the Tariff Plan ar...

Projected Economic Benefits and Beneficiaries. ‌ The Irrigation and Market Access Project is estimated to increase xxxxxx incomes through both increased production and trade. The Irrigation Perimeter Development Activity is expected to increase both area cultivated, particularly during the dry season, and output per hectare. Farmers are expected to augment their incomes primarily by increasing the volume of their production through both enlarging their area cultivated and through improved yields. This Activity, together with the Management Services and Market Facilitation Activity, will make more land available for production through both an increase in area cultivated as well as through flood protection. Roads infrastructure serving the Dosso-Gaya perimeters is a complementary investment to the irrigation perimeter development. Rehabilitating and upgrading the road network within the Dosso-Gaya area through the Roads for Market Access Activity is expected to improve physical market access. With these targeted improvements on the road network, the Dosso-Gaya perimeters will be linked to the rest of the country. The main assumption underpinning the economic rate of return is that by using roads that are in good condition, the users of the roads will save on vehicle operating costs (due to reduced maintenance and repair) and on traveling time. The combined economic rate of return (“ERR”) for the Irrigation and Market Access Project is 17 percent. The Climate-Resilient Communities Project is expected to increase incomes for agro-pastoralists by increasing the quantities, the value and the price of agro-pastoral products sold as a result of the Project interventions in Eligible Communes and Livestock Corridors. The PRAPS Activity is expected to increase pastoralists’ incomes by improving animal health and improving infrastructure to ensure animal growth and value at time of sale. Vaccination of livestock against CBPP and PPR is expected to reduce disease incidence for both CBPP and PPR. Pastoralist income is expected to increase through avoided losses caused by the mortality and morbidity related to these diseases. Other activities, such as rehabilitation and upgrading of the Livestock Corridors, will increase income by improving animal growth and by allowing pastoralists to save on animal feed purchase through access to improved water points, pasture and market infrastructure. The benefit stream from the CRA Activity is based on the assumption that agro-pastoralist and xxxxxx income will increase by inves...
Projected Economic Benefits and Beneficiaries. The ERR analysis calculates average economic opportunity costs of electricity disruptions by estimating losses in value added due to the costs of own generation of electricity and losses of value added due to the temporary cessation of economic activity. The midpoint ERRs for each project are presented in the table below. Project Estimated ERR ECG Financial and Operational Turnaround Project 19% NEDCo Financial and Operational Turnaround Project TBD Regulatory Strengthening and Capacity Building Project (costs incorporated in ECG/NEDCo calculations) Not Applicable (wrapped into the ECG and NEDCo ERRs) Access Project Not Applicable Power Generation Sector Improvement Project 24%2 Energy Efficiency and Demand Side Management Project 27% The M&E Plan will also define in detail the persons or entities expected to benefit from the Program. Beneficiary analysis is an extension of economic rate of return analysis that seeks to disaggregate the total increase in income to determine specifically which segments of society will benefit from the Compact Projects and Activities. MCC considers beneficiaries3 of Projects and Activities to be those people who experience better standards of living as a result of the Project or Activity (as the case may be) through higher real incomes. The expected beneficiaries of this Compact are shown in Annex I, and the estimates of the number of beneficiaries may be updated in the final M&E Plan as additional information becomes available. The M&E Plan will also outline key assumptions and risks that underlie the accomplishment of the theory of change summarized in the program logic.
