Electricity sector reforms in sub-Saharan Africa were technical, economic and structural changes with multiple and inter-related economic, social and sustainability goals. However, the strategic objective of the program was improving operational efficiency with the expectation that this will result in these goals. My thesis assesses whether the reform program has been successful in delivering its value drivers. This is to to identify and capture lessons and determine mid-course correctional strategies where necessary. This study is different, in the way it distinguishes between objectives and goals and the its explicit model of the multi-dimensionality of electricity sector reforms. It allow us to provide empirical estimates of trade-offs that are typical in such a multi-objective optimisation problem.
