The Rwanda off-grid solar electrification strategy comprises solar lanterns, 1 solar home systems (SHSs), solar mini-grids, solar water pumps, and solar water heaters. Although a country-wide SHS subsidy program is underway, it is pertinent to evaluate how this unfolding energy market will configure and impact the execution of the SDGs in Rwanda.
Circa 17.8% of Rwandan households are connected through off-grid, predominantly solar systems in 2021 (REG, 2021) which play an important role in the country’s electrification strategy and the achievement of ambitious development goals.
Recently in Energy Policy, Bisaga et al. used synergies and trade-offs of SDG7 to assess Rwanda’s off-grid solar energy sector performance against the 169 Targets of the UN 2030 Agenda. By 2015, the United Nations (UN) member states agreed to offer a successful, friendly, imperishable, and liveable world by 2030.
The decade of off-grid solar is a valuable lesson for the future calling for more deliberate steps towards just energy transitions for Rwandans, and as a result, a more just society at large. 1.
