Rwanda targets to achieve universal access to electricity by 2024 with a production capacity of 556MW of which renewable energy will constitute 60% of the energy mix mainly from hydro projects and solar energy.
What is the current power generation capacity in Rwanda?
The current installed power generation capacity is 235.6MW. To achieve the above target, the Rwanda Government has developed a Least Cost Power Development Plan that gives priority to renewable energy projects. These mostly include hydro projects (MHPP 33MW, HPP 133MW and hydro pump storage 80MW).
How much solar energy does Rwanda have?
It is generally characterized by Savannah climate and its geographical location endows it with sufficient solar radiation intensity approximately equal to 5kWh/m2/day and peak sun hours of approximately 5 hours per day. Rwanda’s Total on-grid installed solar energy is 12.08 MW.
Is micro hydro power a viable option in Rwanda?
Feasibility studies conducted by Rwanda Energy Group indicated potential in micro hydro power generation in over 40 smaller sites. Medium Hydropower Nyabarongo II (43.5MW) is a multipurpose project expected to cater for water supply, irrigation as well as electrical power generation.
Can a friendly regulatory environment speed-track solar adoption in Rwanda?
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.
