The history of solar power in disaster response showcases its effectiveness and potential for long-term sustainability. To better understand the significance of solar power in disaster recovery and emergency relief, it is crucial to define key terms. Solar power harnesses the energy emitted by the sun using photovoltaic systems.
The new support adds to others such as the CIZO project or the Tinga Fund which aim to improve access to electricity in Togo. The country, it is worth noting, wants to achieve universal access by 2030. The World Bank (WB) will spend CFA39.7 billion in Togo for its Regional Emergency Solar Power Intervention Project (RESPITE).
Incorporating solar power in emergency response plans allows for seamless integration into relief operations, thereby maximizing efficiency and effectiveness. Training and capacity building for using solar power systems in emergencies equip responders and affected communities with the necessary skills to harness solar energy effectively.
