AN IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS BUSINESS LANDSCAPE: MINIGRID
This report was developed by the Africa Minigrid Developers Association (AMDA) as part of an ongoing effort to inventory the current policies, regulations, and import duties affecting
Since 2008, the pervasiveness of mini-grids in Tanzania has grown substantially, following EWURA's introduction of a regulatory framework for mini-grids (SPP framework), which has since been gradually reviewed to effectually provide for mini-grid development (IRENA, 2018 ).
This comprehensive study will be valuable to the large and growing community that is banking on mini-grids to transform energy access in Africa. Tanzania has at least 109 mini-grids, with installed capacity of 157.7 MW (exact figures are not known, because some small systems may not have registered). They serve about 184,000 customers.
It utilizes the case of Tanzania, to capture facets behind the evolution of the mini-grid policy and regulatory landscape, to draw lessons from. Using success stories, it gauges the policy landscape and regulations in RE mini-grids implementation, and highlights how policies impact viability, scalability, and sustainability.
