The Impact of the Syrian Crisis on the Lebanese Power Sector and Priority Recommendations

February 21, 2017

The Ministry of Energy and Water (MoEW), in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and with funding from the Kingdom of the Netherlands, initiated a project to study the additional power consumption as a result of the displaced Syrians in Lebanon. This report quantifies the power consumption of the displaced Syrians in Lebanon, assesses their direct and indirect impact on the electricity sector in Lebanon, and recommends interventions that are in line with the government’s Policy Paper, Lebanon Crisis Response Plan (LCRP) and Lebanon’s Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC). The data produced in this report was also used to prepare the Energy Sector of the LCRP 2017 – 2020.
