Is Uganda a good place to invest in solar power?

Despite solar capacity of just 7% in the country, Uganda’s eight hours of sunshine per day represents huge potential for solar power’s development. Attracting investment is key. As part of efforts to scale up solar PV investment, the government of Uganda introduced model contracts in their investment guides.

Can Uganda achieve universal energy access by 2030?

According to the analysis, achieving universal energy access in Uganda by 2030 is a steep but not unprecedented challenge. Hydro and geothermal resources currently meet more than one-quarter of Uganda's generation, and they will be supplemented by nuclear power. Plans are underway to bring the first nuclear power facility in the country online in the early 2030s.

Will European Investment Bank provide a loan to Uganda?

The European Investment Bank has agreed to provide a USD 12.5 million loan to Fenix International, a subsidiary of ENGIE, to support the deployment of 240,000 high-quality solar home systems in Uganda. This investment aims to solve the last mile challenge and provide power in remote communities across Uganda.

What is the new energy plan for Uganda?

The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development in Uganda has issued a new plan for the country's energy sector that sets out a robust pathway for meeting economic growth and development objectives in a secure, affordable and sustainable way.

Will Engie support off-grid solar deployment in East Africa?

ENGIE will support off-grid solar deployment in East Africa, as part of a new partnership with the European Investment Bank. Over a million people in Uganda will be able to access electricity for the first time through this initiative, which will power communications, provide light, and make cooking easier.
