The Mozambican government and the World Bank are investing US$2.7 million in an irrigation system powered by the national grid and solar panels in three of the four irrigated areas in Mopeia district, in the central province of Zambézia.
Through the RERD2+ project, in partnership with FUNAE, with the financing of the Belgian Development Cooperation, five mini-grids are up and running across Zambézia and Nampula, delivering over 800 kWp of clean energy. More than 18,000 people – along with 200 businesses, schools, and health centers – are now connected to reliable power.
Through a partnership with Logos Industries, a 15kW solar power system was installed to meet the energy needs of the MozParks head office, with additional capacity for future growth. This collaboration highlights MozParks’ dedication to integrating sustainable energy solutions into its operations.
Since its launch in 2019, the BRILHO programme, funded by the governments of the United Kingdom (FCDO) and Sweden (Sida) and implemented by SNV, has reached a historic milestone by delivering off-grid energy solutions to 3 million Mozambicans. This impact includes solar home systems, mini-grids, and improved cooking solutions.
The solar-powered freshwater system is vital in reducing infection risks during childbirth and improving the clinic’s daily operations. Despite overall global declines in maternal mortality, Africa continues to experience high mortality rates with projects like this playing a crucial role in improving maternal health outcomes.
