This comprehensive strategy aims to increase energy access through a combination of technical and non-technical interventions. A key part of the roadmap is to incorporate Sierra Leone's abundant renewable energy resources, ensuring a secure energy supply to rural communities and boosting the national economy.
Sierra Leone currently has one of the lowest energy access rates globally, with only 36% of its population connected to the grid and a mere 6% in rural areas. The SOGREA Initiative supports the government's aim to increase the share of renewable energy in the country's energy mix to 35% by 2030. “By 2027, Sierra Leone will be fully illuminated.
A key part of the roadmap is to incorporate Sierra Leone's abundant renewable energy resources, ensuring a secure energy supply to rural communities and boosting the national economy. One of the most significant projects in this roadmap is the planned expansion of the Bumbuna Hydroelectric Dam.
In 2020 Power Leone signed an MOU with the Government of Sierra Leone to construct and operate 40 solar mini-grid sites with 1.4 MW capacity across rural Sierra Leone. In 2024, Sierra Leone is constructing and commissioning 17 of these mini-grid sites (800 kW).
The ETGGP aims to achieve universal energy access in Sierra Leone by 2040, powered by clean energy sources, requiring an estimated 132 MW in mini-grids and a total investment of USD
