World Bank-led Africa power plan reaches 50m in two years
Reported byClub of Mozambique ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Mission 300 has connected over 50 million people to electricity across 40 African nations in two years, accelerating to nearly double the initial pace, with at least 7.5 million in Tanzania, 4.6 million in Ethiopia, and similar numbers in Nigeria. The initiative aims to reach 300 million Africans by 2030 and has mobilized $26.5 billion in commitments.
Reaching electrification targets depends on sustained financing and implementation beyond the initial commitments.
