Solar micro and mini grids can provide high-quality uninterrupted renewable electricity to underserved villages and communities in rural areas of Uganda and be the least-cost solution to close the energy access gap.

Climate action efforts can tap solar mini grids that offer a lower greenhouse gas emission alternative compared to diesel-fueled systems and kerosene-based appliances. The World Bank’s Mini Grids for Half a Billion People: Market Outlook and Handbook for Decision Makers notes that to realize the full potential of solar mini grids, governments and industry must work together to systematically identify mini grid opportunities, drive costs down, and overcome barriers to financing.

    Goal for Advanced Innovation and Networking for Development has deployed mini grids to serve communities. Currently we have about 20 mini grids that are fully operational and some are under construction. We hope to deploy more mini grids to close the energy access gap and ensure universal access to electricity by 2030.
