Studies have shown that achieving universal access to electricity in Mali would require an investment of around $1.3 billion to extend networks and create more mini-grids, Sissoko said. Solar power is a recent development in the country.
In rural areas, access is as low as 25%, according to Abdoulaye Makan Sissoko, an official with Mali’s rural electrification agency. Studies have shown that achieving universal access to electricity in Mali would require an investment of around $1.3 billion to extend networks and create more mini-grids, Sissoko said.
The rural electrification agency says 32 mini-solar plants like the one in Karan are in four regions in Mali’s south and southwest of the country, providing power for more than 2 million people, and are run by WeLight and German-owned Africa GreenTec. “We started with 48 connections and now we have more than 200.
Solar power is a recent development in the country. The government is encouraging the use of it by exempting equipment from customs duties and promising to subsidize the price of solar kits. Without such subsidies, solar energy in Mali is about twice the price of the traditional fossil fuel energy used in cities.
