Solar power has enabled rural areas in Rwanda, such as Kanobe Village, to gain access to energy, impacting key facets of the rural population such as productivity, safety, health benefits, and livelihood. According to 2018 data, 52.4% of total energy in Rwanda is from a renewable source, but only 35.13% of the households are connected to the national grid and 11.33% have access off-grid. This indicates that there is still a need for wider access to electricity, and renewables will play a key role in increasing this coverage, especially for rural areas, followed by Kanobe Village's example.
