From commitments to disbursements: The mini-grid sector remains underfunded
Over the last decade, DRE technologies attracted over USD 3 billion, but $2.3 billion is needed annually to achieve universal energy access by 2030. Power for All recommends Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to track financial progress, including the alignment between approved and disbursed funds (currently only 14% disbursed), the share of funded sites (currently 20% of projects receive support), and donor money per connection (with only 17% of CAPEX currently covered). These KPIs highlight critical funding gaps in the mini-grid sector, highlighting where progress is needed.
