The decade of off-grid solar is a valuable lesson for the future calling for more deliberate steps towards just energy transitions for Rwandans, and as a result, a more just society at large. 1.
As access to electricity is the engine for development and improvement of welfare, the government of Rwanda is targeting 100% access to electricity for all population by 2024. Rwanda has abundant natural energy resources including hydro, solar, geothermal, methane gas and wind energy to be investigated before any decision.
Circa 17.8% of Rwandan households are connected through off-grid, predominantly solar systems in 2021 (REG, 2021) which play an important role in the country’s electrification strategy and the achievement of ambitious development goals.
The transformation of the off-grid solar sector has played a critical role in the country’s rural electrification and development, and the policy and business environments have resulted in dozens of off-grid solar companies entering the Rwandan market.
Our solar PV systems and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
