The Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority (ZESA) has unveiled an ambitious plan to connect at least three million rural households to solar power, revolutionizing energy access in underserved regions. The initiative, set to roll out in phases, will initially connect 500,000 households to the solar system within the first year. This bold move aims to bridge the energy gap and stimulate development in rural Zimbabwe.
The four-year project seeks to transform the lives of millions of Zimbabweans, providing clean and reliable energy for lighting, heating, and powering small businesses. Solar power will enable rural communities to access modern amenities, improve healthcare, education, and economic opportunities.
This landmark initiative is expected to have a profound impact on Zimbabwe’s rural development, fostering economic growth, and improving living standards.
