✳️ How much electricity 🇪🇹 Ethiopia needs to develop? Part I.
In July of 2020 Ethiopian government (Planning and Development Position) have presented “10 Years Development Plan 2021-2030”. One can find it online both in Amharic and in English.
🔺This plan aspires to make Ethiopia an “African Beacon of Prosperity”. First of all, by improving income levels and wealth accumulations “so that every citizen would be able to satisfy their basic needs and aspirations” — beautiful and noble objective.
🔺Ten year plan sets ambitious economic goals that cannot be reached without ambitious growth in electricity production.
Let’s focus on 👨🏾🌾 agriculture development objectives:
1️⃣ increase in crop production by 1.7 times (including 4.3 times increase in crop production through irrigation)
2️⃣ increase in milk production by 2.7 times
3️⃣ increase in meat production by 5.8 times
4️⃣ increase in egg and chicken meat production by 2 times
5️⃣ increase in fish production by 4.2 times
6️⃣ increase in honey production by 2.5 times
🔺@10 Green Gigawatt for Ethiopia estimates the amount of new electricity generation that is required to support those objectives as 100-150 MW.
The most cost-effective solution is 🔆 off-grid solar+battery - cheapest energy generation that is built right at the location of energy consumption.

Let’s focus on 👨🏾🏭 manufacturing and development objectives:
1️⃣ increase average capacity utilization of the manufacturing industry from 50% to 85%
2️⃣ raise the number of small and medium-scale manufacturing enterprises from 2,000 to 11,000
3️⃣ create a total of 5 million new job opportunities in the manufacturing industry
🔺@10 Green Gigawatt for Ethiopia estimates the amount of new electricity generation that is required to support those objectives as 600 MW.
The most cost-effective solution is 🔆 off-grid solar+battery - cheapest energy generation that is built right at the location of energy consumption.

Let’s focus on 👷🏿mining development objectives:
1️⃣ increase gold production by 3.2 tons to 137 tons (42 times)
2️⃣ increase number of mining industries that add value to precious and semi-precious minerals from 30 to 130 (4.3 times)
3️⃣ increase number of mining industries that produce construction inputs from 1,500 to 6,500 (4.3 times)
4️⃣ increase number of mining industries that produce minerals that serve as inputs for the production of chemicals and petrochemicals from 100 to 1,100 (11 times)
