KenyaIn 2019, the World Bank and the African Development Bank (AfDB) launched a bold initiative — Mission 300 — to provide electricity to 300 million people in Sub-Saharan Africa by 2030, with a strong focus on off-grid solar solutions in Africa.
Through partnerships with the private sector, Mission 300 aims to bridge the region’s significant energy gap by delivering clean, reliable, and affordable off-grid electricity to the communities that need it most.
The Core Goals of Mission 300
Mission 300 is not only about lighting homes — it’s about catalyzing social and economic transformation by addressing energy poverty at its roots.
The initiative centers on five key objectives:
Electrifying 300 Million People
Driving the Clean Energy Transition
Combating Energy Poverty
Encouraging Private Sector Involvement
Boosting Socio-Economic Development
