Project Monitoring Guide

A guide to monitoring technologies, governance and institutional frameworks

The specific complexities of monitoring energy sector projects are found in the multitude of permutations of energy technologies which are employed and the relative infancy of some of the project technologies, such as for example plastic biogas chambers or farming of Jatropha. This highlights the importance of focusing on lessons learning. In addition, the varied scale of the projects funded means that not only energy-related monitoring is required.

This guide presents key elements for consideration in terms of general design of energy projects, and then looks at the specific technologies and approaches. The document provides some key features of the design of energy projects which require attention.
