RWANDA ELECTRICITY

ACCESS SCALE UP PROGRAM

AND SWAP DEVELOPMENT

Eng. Yussuf UWAMAHORO

Rwanda

Sector Overview

• Rwanda surface area: 26,338 km2, with population of 9.5 Mn

• Access rate to electricity is 6%, 2/3 of connections in Kigali City

• Electricity cost in Rwanda is one the highest in the region at $0.22 kW/h

• Electricity demand is 60 MW

• Installed capacity 75 MW with rental power from Aggreko

• Energy sources: Hydro, Lake Kivu Methane Gas, Geothermal, solar, wind, etc.


Rwanda

Sector Overview cont.

• Key Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy/EDPRS (2008-2012) targets include:

Increasing access to electricity from the 6% to 16%

Increasing electricity generation from 60MW to 165MW

• These targets will be achieved by increased use of:

More cost effective and sustainable energy sources such as methane gas, hydro (and micro hydro), solar, wind, geothermal - thus enabling lower tariffs

Grid expansion

Off grid solutions such as Micro hydro, solar, wind, etc


Rwanda

Sector Wide Approach

in the Rwandan Energy Sector


Rwanda

Idea and Objective of the SWAp

Coordinate the Support of the Development Partners in the

Rwandan Energy Sector

• To ensure the implementation of the Energy Sector Strategy and its

related projects

• To harmonize all efforts toward a common objective

• To coordinate Planning, as well as Monitoring and Evaluation of all

activities

• To strengthen partnership and national ownership

• To improve performance and procedures

• To develop a common program of work to be defined in the

“Prospectus”


Rwanda

Memorandum of Understanding between

the Government of Rwanda and the

Development Partners

• Signed by the GoR and Development Partners in June 2008

• To be the basis of further harmonizing efforts in the Sector Working

Group

• To serve as the guideline for the Donor Coordination Secretariat

• The MoU indicates: Commitments of the Government of Rwanda,

Obligations of Partners, Collective Responsibilities, Cooperation

among Partners, Collaboration with the Private Sector, etc.


Rwanda

Commitments of the GoR

• GoR/MININFRA will assume leadership in the Sector Wide

Approach and therefore set up a Sector Secretariat for Donor

Coordination and coordinate with all other relevant ministries, as

well as Districts

• Organize Sector Working Group Meetings at agreed intervals

• Organize the Joint Energy Sector Review every year

• Consult regularly with Development Partners


Rwanda

Obligations of Partners

• Appointing a Lead Donor Representative, who will be coordinating

donor positions, co-chairing in meetings, support MININFRA in

SWAp Administration

• Partners are encouraged to provide budget support

• Harmonizing their own planning, M+E, with the SWAp

• Plan future support to the Energy Sector together with the GoR

• Harmonizing Capacity Building


Rwanda

Phasing of the SWAp

• First Year: Focus on Electricity Segment

National Electricity Roll Out Programme

PROSPECTUS was developed

• Second Segment: Biomass Strategy being finalized, investment and

implementation programme to follow

• Hydrocarbon segment: Framework and Strategy for resource

exploration and development during 2009


Rwanda

PROSPECTUSGeo-spatial planning for

Least cost grid extension

• Comprehensive GIS (Geographical Information System) data base

- Population density, economic activity areas, priority social institutions

(health centres, schools, administrative offices)

- data from National Bureau of Statistics, National GIS Centre, MINALOC,

MINEDUC, MINISANTE, MININFRA, ELGZ

- Affordability based on household income and expenditure data (EICV2

survey)

- Digitization of existing and planned national electricity grid

• Considering alternative Off-Grid Solutions

- Micro-hydro mini grids, diesel grids, solar systems
