Yet 15% of medical facilities in sub-Saharan Africa lack connection to power, and only 40% of the connected ones receive a reliable supply. While electricity access in Kenya has improved tremendously over the last decade, reaching 75% of the total population, 26% of the country's medical facilities lack a power connection.
Top Care Nursing Home, a hospital on the outskirts of Nairobi, uses power generated from an on-site solar PV and storage system, which helped it remain operational during the entire power blackout. People in the nearby community even came to the facility to charge their phones.
A GIS map from WRI's Energy Access Explorer shows health care facilities that are located far from the grid, but have high solar potential. Develop a pipeline of bankable projects in the health care electrification sector. Public and private sources of finance are needed to electrify Africa's health care sector.
But there was one hospital that remained operational without needing to switch on a generator. Top Care Nursing Home, a hospital on the outskirts of Nairobi, uses power generated from an on-site solar PV and storage system, which helped it remain operational during the entire power blackout.
