Congo 5G communication base station inverter grid-connected
In the 5G base station microgrid, the traffic of the macro and micro base stations exhibits obvious periodicity in time, and the upward and downward trends are in step.
The macro-fiscal returns of enhanced electrification are well documented. A recent International Monetary Fund staff report suggests that each percentage point increase in reliable electricity access could add 0.15 percentage points to Congo's non-oil GDP growth (IMF Article IV Consultation, 2024).
Through the Electricity Access and Service Expansion project, the World Bank supports DRC's efforts to improve infrastructure governance by building the capacity of key power institutions as well as institutional and regulatory strengthening. This is a crucial step to support DRC's goal to provide electricity to 26.5 million households by 2030.
As a result, over 28,000 households and businesses in eastern DRC will have access to more affordable and reliable electricity. “Though it was a complicated transaction, MIGA worked diligently to innovate and provide guarantees to de-risk this metro-grid investment,”said Jessica Stiefler, Senior Underwriter and Distributed Energy Lead at MIGA.
The World Bank Group is working with the government on DRC's strategy on mini-grids and increased focus on delivering mini-grids at scale in the country.
