Impact Monitoring and Evaluation of Productive Electricity Use – An Implementation Guide for Project Managers
The existing literature on the methodology of impact evaluations targets academic evaluation researchers or practitioners with a high affinity to becoming acquainted with evaluation methods. Practitioners who are rather interested in setting up a hands-on monitoring and evaluation (M&E) scheme to obtain robust insights into the impacts of concrete interventions, however, can hardly be expected to familiarise themselves with these methodological issues at the level of highbrow econometric research. Intending to close this gap, the guide provides assistance on how to design an impact M&E system or an impact evaluation study for productive electricity use in electrification interventions (PUE impact M&E system in the following) and is tailored to examine electricity take-up and income generation in small and micro-enterprises (SMEs).
