How can a solar minigrid benefit Zambia?
Promoting productive uses of renewable energy. One of Zambia’s key strategies for scaling up distributed renewable energy systems, including solar minigrids, is making sure that energy goes beyond just lighting homes. The focus is on promoting productive uses of renewable energy: powering activities that generate income and improve livelihoods.
Will Zambia increase its solar power capacity by 2030?
The Zambian government has set a target to increase its installed solar and wind capacity to 600 MW by 2030. However, the current installed capacity for solar photovoltaics is only 90 MWp, indicating significant underutilisation of Zambia's potential in the renewable energy sector.
How does the World Bank support Zambia's Electricity access initiatives?
The World Bank is supporting Zambia's electricity access initiatives, including the development of mini-grids, through projects like the Electricity Services Access Project (ESAP) and the Zambia-Tanzania Interconnector Project (ZTIP), aiming to expand access to affordable and sustainable energy.
Why should Zambia open up the energy sector?
“By opening up the energy sector, we are not only securing a sustainable energy supply but also fostering economic development and empowerment.” The initiative aligns with Zambia’s broader strategy to boost renewable energy investment and strengthen the country’s resilience against climate-related challenges affecting hydropower generation.
Does Zambia need a new energy source?
LUSAKA, April 1, 2025 – Access to electricity in Zambia has risen from 30% in 2017 to currently nearly 50%. Whilst half of the population is connected, the remaining half will require new energy solutions. Zambia currently relies on hydropower for 80% its electricity generation, but recent droughts have shown the limitations of this energy source.
Will Zambia invest in off-grid solar energy?
In collaboration with the World Bank, the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), the Africa Minigrid Development Association (AMDA), and other partners, the Government of Zambia is redoubling its efforts to invest in off-grid solar energy throughout the country to connect all Zambians.
