By May 2021, Rwanda’s generation capacity installed is currently 238.052MW. 1,752,345 households have been connected to electricity where 1,278,601 households are on grid and 473,744 households connected to Off-grid mainly solar. Solar energy is a promising solution to meet the demand for rural households’ electricity services in remote locations.
A friendly regulatory environment deserves credit for helping to fast-track the adoption of solar, according to local analysts. Rwanda is rich in renewable energy resources, but the cost of capital and the low price of electricity from the grid are slowing down development.
According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), Rwanda had around 25 MW of installed solar capacity at the end of 2022. No new PV capacity has been deployed in the sub-Saharan country over the past three years. Total power generation capacity currently stands at just 259 MW and only 35% of the population has access to electricity.
Elie Habimana, Managing Director of Norrsken House Kigali, said that the building meets 53% of its energy needs with its PV installation. “We primarily run on solar during the day, then switch to the grid at night,” Habimana said.”
