According to the IEA, 685 million people live with no access to energy, particularly those in remote and underserved communities. Research shows access to reliable energy positively impacts socio-economic opportunity and development, including increased availability of education and health resources, job creation and economic diversification. Advances in solar solutions open paths to clean, reliable, and affordable energy access through solar home systems and at the community level through mini-grids. Some of the challenges in scaling the capacity of solar home systems and mini-grids include the optimisation of design, improving affordability, grid integration, and enabling regulatory environments. To unlock the full potential of solar solutions, policymakers, grid operators, investors, and rural electrification agencies must work together to create the right supporting frameworks.
