The RGC has established four long-term targets for electricity-generating renewable
energy technologies for the first five-year period:
- 5 % of new electricity generation, or about 6 MW, will be supplied by renewable
electricity technologies, including 3 hydropower mini-grids, 3 viable renewable
energy technologies (RET) businesses and 50-100 trained RET personnel,
- 100,000 households (HH) will be supplied by electricity from renewable
technologies on a competitive basis. Of this volume, the goal is to get 45,000
households, electrified by the Rural Electricity Enterprises (REE),
- 10,000 households will be served by Solar Home Systems (SHS)
