For a significant portion of the estimated 789 million people who currently lack access to electricity, mini-grids can present a least-cost option to close the access gap.

The Mini-Grids Partnership (MGP)—a consortium of over 300 mini-grid stakeholders from the public and private sector—identified a lack of unified and comprehensive data and sector knowledge as a critical gap for the development of the mini-grids sector, and agreed to produce an authoritative, insightful, and up-to-date market intelligence report.

Mini-grids are critical for achieving SDG7

The State of the Global Mini-Grids Market Report 2020 highlights global mini-grid market trends, including business models, conducive regulations, financing, economics and sectoral impacts. The report also profiles distinct geographic markets which provide characteristically different examples reflecting markets at different stages of development and offers a deep-dive into six country case studies.

The report aims to not only raise awareness about the mini-grids sector and the critical role they can play in achieving SDG7 but also provide a foundation for rich knowledge and data in a transparent manner to mobilize investments for the sector.

SEforALL, on behalf of the MGP, is delighted to invite you to join us at the State of the Global Mini-Grids Market Report 2020 virtual launch. We are pleased to inform you that we will host the following special guest speakers for our event.

The State of the Global Mini-Grids Market Report 2020 launch is held online on 1 July. The event is hosted by Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL), on behalf of the Mini-Grids Partnership and with support from EnDev.

Date: 1 July, 15:00 – 17:00 CEST
