The scaling up of mini-grid for rural electrification will provide 24/7 electricity services to 150 villages with 22,500 households or a total of 112,500 rural residents. It will also promote sustainable socio-economic development of rural communities by boosting productivity; and enabling access to higher education and health services, job opportunities and enhanced income opportunities resulting from being able to manufacture products during daytime. It will also help the Government achieve its universal access to electricity target by 2030.
