Electrification has been slow around the rural shores and islands of the Great Lakes of #Africa. To help meet this need, NDF provided funding to the Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa (SEFA), hosted by the African Development Bank Group. SEFA made a project preparation grant to Jumeme Rural Power Supply, a Tanzanian off-grid solar developer, to identify and develop minigrids. “JUMEME developed 23 minigrids around the islands and shores of Lakes Victoria and Tanganyika. We d...idn’t just bring electricity, but other incentives to help #SustainableDevelopment. For example, we provided financing so millers could replace their old diesel engine with an electric engine in their mills,” says Leo Schiefermueller, Managing Director of TerraProjects.
