Support for project to stop deterioration and start recovery of state-owned electric utility (2006)

Haiti has the lowest coverage of electricity in the Western Hemisphere. Only about 10 percent of its 8.5 million people have access to limited services. The project, which is line with similar efforts backed by donor countries and multilateral agencies, will help EDH begin on its financial and managerial recovery and prepare for larger projects to sustain its services and extend coverage.
