Tóm tắt

 This report aims to 1) understand what economical, political or contractual events affecting power projects in a region or a specific country led to project distress
  and 2) establish how they affected the various private power projects. The report describes and analyzes the trends in private participation in the electric power sector in developing countries over the 1984-2003 period. The analysis is based on the survey of 63 electricity projects under stress. It identifies the most significant causes of stress, describes the most frequent stress factors and their combination in "stress patterns," and presents the consequences of the stress patterns on power projects. Beyond the presentation of stress patterns, the report provides insights in the relationship between power sector reforms, privatization of power utilities and success/failure of private power projects.
