Scaling Solar

Scaling Solar brings together a suite of World Bank Group services under a single engagement aimed at creating viable markets for solar power in each client country. The “one stop shop” program aims to make privately funded grid-connected solar projects operational within two years and at competitive tariffs

Successful global programs like the World Bank’s Scaling Solar Initiative, have resulted in low-cost reliable solar energy in Sub-Saharan Africa (e.g. 6.02 US cent/kWh tariff in 2016 in Zambia), and include fully developed templates of bankable project documents.
