Abstract
This impact report is part of an evaluation commissioned by the Policy
and Operations Evaluation Department (IOB) of the Netherlands
Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It belongs to a series of impact evaluations
of renewable energy and development programmes supported by the
Netherlands, with a focus on the medium and long term effects of these
programmes on end-users or final beneficiaries. A characteristic of
these studies is the use of quantitative research techniques, in
combination with qualitative techniques, to get insight in the
magnitude of effects. The purpose of the impact evaluations is to
account for assistance provided and to draw lessons from the findings
for improvement of policy and policy implementation. The results of
these impact evaluations will be input to a policy evaluation of the
“Promoting Renewable Energy Programme” (PREP) to be concluded in
2014.
