| Summary: | Since fiscal year 2010 the World Bank
has supported 20 smart grid projects in 19 countries and all
six Bank regions. Valued at 960 million dollars - a quarter
of all Bank support for transmission and distribution during
the period — the projects have focused on advanced metering,
distribution automation, and supervisory control and data
acquisition for energy and distribution management systems.
Some of these projects are still under implementation, but
task teams are learning valuable lessons about how to
implement smart grid projects most effectively. |
