Prospect – UECCC training workshop for Ugandan energy service companies

We are making clear progress toward the implementation of the open source data platform Prospect as part of Uganda Energy Credit Capitalisation Company’s (UECCC) Electricity Access Scale-up Project (EASP)!

Recently, the UECCC hosted a comprehensive 2-day training workshop, jointly conducted with the Prospect team, for energy service companies in Uganda. The workshop introduced Prospect to over 70 stakeholders from shortlisted companies that will potentially benefit from the World Bank-backed results-based financing program as part of EASP.

Prospect – a collaboration between A2EI and GET.invest – will be utilized for the automatic collection, aggregation, verification, display, and analysis of data under the RBF program. During the intense hands-on sessions stakeholders learned how to use Prospect to share data, identify eligible sales and submit claims for the upcoming EASP project. Very valuable feedback was given by the participants that will shape the final program interface of Prospect to allow a robust and efficient digital support for the EASP program with next-level digital verification.

We’re excited about the huge interest of local energy service companies in Prospect – and look forward to continuing support for all stakeholders to promote data-backed transparency and accountability while providing sustainable energy access throughout Uganda!
