The Gambia: Energy Policy

The use of solar PV in Gambia dates back to the 1980s, and solar PVs have predominantly been used for rural water pumping to enhance access to clean drinking water. The use of solar has helped to provide access to clean water to at least 93% of the population in Gambia. Solar thermal technologies are relatively cheaper and therefore save money
