Read < 1 minute

Rwanda is set to increase its electricity output through the recently launched KivuWatt project  which is a methane power producing source.

It started operations in May, is part of a network of projects aimed at providing 70 percent of the 11 million population with power from the grid or off-grid by 2018, up from 25 percent now.

Much will come from renewable resources.
