USAID program, which runs through October, 2014. The budget for this program is US $18.962M.
The US Agency for International Development’s (USAID) Liberian Energy Sector Support Program (LESSP) responds to the priority set by the Government of Liberia (GOL) of rehabilitating electricity infrastructure, which is an integral component of the nation’s macroeconomic development strategy as set forth in the Poverty Reduction Strategy (PRS). Specifically, LESSP contributes to the following goals stipulated in the PRS: builds the capacity of a restructured Ministry of Lands, Mines and Energy (MLME); increases energy access in both Monrovia and three rural counties; launches Liberia’s small, micro and mini hydropower generation capability and explores additional generation options from other renewable energy sources; and improves legal, institutional, and regulatory frameworks within the electricity sector.
