Executive summary
Current state
The World Bank has approved a $50 million IDA grant to Sierra Leone's electricity distribution utility (EDSA) for recovery and energy access, targeting the utility's $108 million liabilities, 50%+ losses, and 36% national access rate. This creates multiple commercial gaps where capital meets implementation bottlenecks.
Market catalyst
Local firms bidding on $50M World Bank contracts have zero visibility into EDSA's vendor performance history, creating blind bidding where they can't assess which suppliers are reliable or which have blacklist risk from past failures.
