Customer ServiceMainstreaming SDGs & Sustainable Energy in Sierra Leone •Sierra Leone implemented the MDGs during 2000-2015. The Goals were operationalized within the framework of the country''s national development plans, such as the poverty reduction strategy papers (PRSPs), which have been implemented since the end of the civil war in 2002.
Customer ServiceFor the energy sector in Sierra Leone to improve and meet these targets at the rate required, some transformative changes are needed. Robust and resilient solutions, acceptable to a range of different stakeholders, are needed across the energy sector.
Sierra Leone’s energy needs are under resourced and the scarcity of a reliable energy supply is one of the key impediments to Sierra Leone’s economic and social development. The country’s installed power capacity per capita is among the lowest in the world with approximately 105 MW available for a population of over 7 million in 2018.
Using the Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning System (LEAP), this work assesses Sierra Leone’s energy supply and demand for 2019–2040. We developed three case scenarios (Base, Middle, and High) based on forecasted demand, resource potential, techno-economic parameters, and CO 2 emissions.
Despite various interventions by the government, a balance between electricity demand and supply has yet to be achieved. Using the Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning System (LEAP), this work assesses Sierra Leone’s energy supply and demand for 2019–2040.
It is therefore unsurprising that Sierra Leone's energy policies since independence have generally oscillated between the development plans of these political parties. The EDSA is responsible for distribution and revenue collection from consumers, as well as operation of the transmission grid below 33 kV.
As a result of the cost of electricity provision from ageing power plants in Freetown (and in Sierra Leone more generally) – with their very high Operation and Maintenance (O & M) costs – the country is largely dependent on temporary electricity supply [ 3 ].
