Project Description

The impact of the PPTA will be to promote the economic growth of the country and region by helping Lao PDR to develop its hydroelectric power resource in an environmentally and socially sustainable manner. It will also promote power trade in the GMS. The outcome of the TA will be to formulate the proposed project-s financing program, using the MFF and preparing two loans that are structured and scheduled to suit the commercial operation schedule of the four hydropower developers. PPTA consultants will also prepare the legal documents for the subsequent operation of the common transmission facility provided through the proposed project and assist the Government in negotiating agreements with EGAT based on these documents
