As stated by the AfDB, the Project’s main development objective is to strengthen the enabling environment for the power regulation sector in Central Africa Republic by enhancing the technical and operational efficiency for the national regulator through the development of tools, revision of procedures and manuals and provision of technical training, provision of capacity building activities, development of relevant monitoring tools and a digital tool.
The specific objectives are:
i) to address the skills gap reported to negatively impact the regulator’s credibility, and
ii) to enhance the institutional capacity of the regulatory structure in MDERH by finetuning new or existing regulatory instruments and developing a digital system to automate regulatory functions, centralize and disseminate information, data, and reports.
The tools will drive MDERH operational efficiency and stimulate private sector engagement through information liberalization as well as uplifting the overall technical and economic performance for the regulator.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF AfDB
The Independent Review Mechanism (IRM), which is administered by the Compliance Review and Mediation Unit (CRMU), is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who have been or are likely to be adversely affected by an African Development Bank (AfDB)-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the IRM, it may assist you by either seeking to address your problems by facilitating a dispute resolution dialogue between you and those implementing the project and/or investigating whether the AfDB complied with its policies to prevent environmental and social harms. You can submit a complaint electronically by emailing crmuinfo@afdb.org, b.kargougou@afdb.org, b.fall@afdb.org, and/or s.toure@afdb.org.
