development finance institutions and the CBN in order to install solar systems at an affordable price. The project will also draw on the experience of the 'Energising Economies' project through which customers with low energy demand were provided with electricity on a monthly 'pay-as-you-go' basis by private sector operators. The project will also promote the local production of solar com- ponents and appliances, taking advantage of the work that has already been done in this regard by the NASENI and others. The Solar Power Strategy will support 250,000 jobs and impact up to 25 million beneficiaries through the installation of 5 million Solar Home systems and mini-grids. Provision of reliable elec- tricity to health clinics will also be included as a priority. The project will swiftly increase the stock of affordable energy by providing solar power to rural communities that have little or no access to the national grid. Private sector installers of so- lar systems will be supported to access low-cost financing from
