Reasons for low electrification levelReasons for low electrification level
High level of investment costs due to use of conventional systems in rural electrification;
High level of unit costs per connection due to low population density in rural areas;
Until recently, it was difficult to implement low-cost electrification due to lack of knowledge of the associated technologies

The WB under ESMAP and ERAP have enabled the following actions to take place:
Low cost workshop in Maputo at early 2005;
Study tour in Ghana in the middle of 2005;
SWS pilot project to an existing HT line;
Low cost electrification master plan is due to start.
