Minigrids Act as the Seed of Change in Cameroon
April 8, 2021
Microgrid Knowledge | In the Central African country of Cameroon, electricity is scarce outside of major cities. But that may soon change because of a public-private partnership that has a set goal of installing 750 minigrids.
The effort is about more than lighting up the 11,000 villages that lack power; the partners hope to foster long-term social, environmental and economic benefits.
Begun with the installation of seven solar minigrids by Renewable Energy Innovators Cameroon (REIc), the project is a partnership between the US Trade and Development Agency (USTDA), SimpliPhi Power, Morua Power and REIc.
