Strengthening the Off-Grid Solar Electrification Market through Improved Policy and Advocacy in East Africa

National Renewable Energy Associations (NREAs) in East Africa, comprising Energy Private Developers (EPD) in Rwanda, Burundi National Renewable Energy Association (BUREA), Kenya Renewable Energy Association (KEREA), Uganda Solar Energy Association (USEA), and Uganda National Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Association (UNREEA) with support from GOGLA, and Goldstone Consulting have launched the East African Community (EAC) report on ‘Strengthening the Off-Grid Solar Electrification Market Through Improved Policy and Advocacy in East Africa.

This study was born out of the Powerup! Project facilitated by GOGLA. One of the key objectives of the project is to strengthen National Renewable Energy Associations (NREA’s) in carrying out their mandate of promoting off-grid solar markets both nationally and regionally.

The study was funded by the PowerUp! project under the Transforming Energy Access (TEA) programme of the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO).
