FAQs 6

Should solar PV devices be adopted in Uganda?

Solar PV devices adoption is largely a rural phenomenon in Uganda. Policy intervention should focus on addressing affordability issues in rural areas. 1. Introduction Access to clean energy, such as electricity, is a prerequisite for economic and sustainable development of any economy ( World Bank, 2018 ).

Is solar energy a viable option in Uganda?

The solar energy resource on average is 5.2 kWh/m 2 /day on horizontal surface with average daily sunshine of around 8 h throughout the year, favourable for solar electricity generation. However, adoption of solar PV systems isintractably low in Uganda ( Manjeri et al., 2021, Rahut et al., 2018 ). This raises an important question.

How can Uganda scale up solar PV investment?

As part of efforts to scale up solar PV investment, the government of Uganda introduced model contracts in their investment guides. Additionally, IRENA, the Terrawatt Initiative, and leading international law firms also supported Uganda by drafting simplified and standardised templates for solar PV documents that are publicly available.

Does flexible payment mechanism increase adoption of solar PV devices in Uganda?

Drivers for adoption solar photovoltaic (PV) devices in Uganda are examined. Conditional mixed process model is used as main analysis tool in this study.Flexible payment mechanism rises chance of households adopting solar home systems. Solar PV devices adoption is largely a rural phenomenon in Uganda.

Is Uganda a good place to invest in solar power?

Despite solar capacity of just 7% in the country, Uganda’s eight hours of sunshine per day represents huge potential for solar power’s development. Attracting investment is key. As part of efforts to scale up solar PV investment, the government of Uganda introduced model contracts in their investment guides.

Why is solar PV adoption low in northern Uganda?

The low levels of solar PV adoption in Northern is in line with findings of the study by Munro and Bartlett (2019), whose reported that households in Northern Uganda depend on car batteries, cell torches, kerosene wick lamps and phone torches as their main source of lighting.
