Power to the People? Can Africa’s Perennial Energy Deficit be Fixed by Improved Governance?

Service Category: Market and Impact Research

Client Type: An International Development Finance Agency

Service: Our client is a major investor in international development. The beneficiary country had suffered decades of unreliable power supply, handicapping national progress. An international consortium with FJP as a key driver, was hired to evaluate the quality of governance of the electricity sector and to recommend actions to guide transformational investments.

What we did: There are Lies, Damned Lies and FJP-designed Statistics😊! We deployed world-class knowledge of business statistics to support high quality investment scenarios and decisions. We designed and administered research in English and three national languages. Our field team conducted a representative sample of over 1,000 nationwide interviews with individual consumers, business executives and policymakers. Our robust reporting engine delivered answers to questions of what, where, when, how and why: through a combination of advanced qualitative and quantitative enquiry.

Foresight Created: The beneficiary country hailed the delivery of meaningful, digestible and purposeful information designed to improve national development outcomes. FJP demonstrated, once again, that it is not just about the money, our service is about our decades-long dedication to development impact!
