Background
Rwanda has abundant power resources, especially
hydrological and other renewable resources, yet there is
widespread power insufficiency all over the country.
There is an urgent need to develop the resources and
im rove ower su l .
Planning for modern power supply, especially electricity that
has been limited mainly to urban and semi-urban areas. A
standard shift in power planning is required to achieve
equitable modern power distribution.

Power supply system An inadequate and inefficient power supply system, arising
from stunted generation capacity growth, a monopolised
transmission and distribution company and poor utility
commercial practices, has been prevalent. The subsector
badly needs large investments and careful utility practices.

Challenges Sustainable development was difficult to achieve as it was
incompatible with economic poverty that was prevalent in
the country. Therefore, Government has the challenge of
expanding access to affordable, reliable and adequate power
su lies to address the overt issues.

Power sector contribution The power sector is directly linked to the other sectors of the
economy, providing their lifeblood. The sector is a major
contributor to Government revenues, and decisions taken in
the sector have a direct bearing on the performance of the
other sectors. The olic framework rovides for
harmonisation with the policies of the other sectors of theeconomy as well as the decision making process on either
side.

Jabana2 thermal power plant
20 MW Jabana thermal power plant has
been initiated by Government of Rwanda,through ELECTROGAZ. The project has
been funded by the World Bank and the
.
This heavy fuel fired power plant is to
replace AGGREKO Rental Power
generators which is very expensive in fuel
and use.
GoR is in negotiations with Aggreko for
production of 7MW.

Geothermal power Rwanda possesses geothermal resources in the
form of hot springs along the belt of Lake Kivu
with a power generation potential of about 170-
320 MW. Preliminary technical exploration studies are
currently being conducted. Once the resource
assessment is completed, good potential sites can
be developed by the private sector. Currently, the Federal Institute for Geosciences
and Natural Resources (BGR) investigates the
geothermal potential throughout Rwanda.
Chevron had completed a study and recommendedthat the locations of Gisenyi in the north of Lake
Kivu and Mashyuza in the south of Lake Kivu
further, should be their choices for detailed
exploration

Methane gas One of the biggest inputs into the
electricity grid in the near future will bepower generated from Methane Gasextracted from the bottom of lake Kivu.
The government-sponsored 4.5 MWmethane gas pilot project and its first
The Rwandan Investment Group (RIG) isdeveloping a pilot project with anexpected output of 3.6 MW.
The government of Rwanda has signed an
agreement with Contour Global forproduction of 100MW from methane gasin lake Kivu at Kibuye

Rwandas electrification rate is very low,
with grid access of only 5% for the whole country Only 104881(end of 2008) customers are connected to the grid.
Kigali city consumption 61.5% and 38.5% for areas other than Kigali.

there is a programme to reach to at least 350,000 connections by2012
Using Solar to supplement grid electricity;
Access by 100% of all clinics
Access by 100% of all local administration offices
Access by more than 50% of all primary and secondary schools

Transmission & DistributionIn terms of network infrastructure
development,
The national transmission gridconsists of some 1800 km of mediumand high voltage lines.
The distribution system consists ofboth medium voltage and low-voltagenetworks, with a significant
proportion being located in Kigali.
About 84% of the customers areconnected through prepaid metres.
