Effective monitoring and evaluation (M&E) is important for evidence-based planning and decision making. It promotes transparency, accountability, and learning. This publication presents a brief overview of the Nepal M&E system, and highlights the strengths and challenges in integrating Scaling Up Renewable Energy Program in Low Income Countries (SREP) results framework and investment plan with the national M&E system. Discussions are based on the results of the SREP M&E workshop held in Kathmandu, Nepal, on 12 October 2012.
