Why Fake Solar Equipment Challenge to Energy Sector Development Initiatives

Electrification connection rate has grown from 10 percent in 2007 to 36 percent in 2015. Speaking to this paper on Tuesday this week Rural Energy Agency’s (REA) Technical Assistance Manager Eng Gissima Nyamo-Hanga said that those figures are expected to reach 75 percent by 2025 and 100 percent by 2030, a year set aside globally for sustainable energy for all. 

Officiating three day training on behalf of REA’s Managing Director held in Dar es Salaam to the contractors, distributors and entrepreneurs of solar energy equipment, Nyamo-Hanga said rural electrification efforts cannot be undertaken in isolation, but rather by equally involving all responsible parties and other key stakeholders.
