Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC3. 0): 2025 -2030 October 2025 2 NDC 3. 0 of the Republic of Sierra Leone Contents EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 10 1 Introduction 19 2 Process & Stakeholder Engagement 21. Sierra Leone's abundant natural resources and renewable energy potential offer attractive investment opportunities across diverse sectors. Currently, the country's power sector is relatively small, with an installed capacity of slightly over 300 MW as of 2023. Despite these challenges, the country. . d the African Development Bank. Electricity access remains limited, with only 30% of the population connected nationally and less than 5% in rural areas. The ongoing energy crisis, coupled with the unreliable electricity supply from the national grid, underscores the critical need to expand access to renewable energy for eco omic growth and development. The country's heavy reliance on fossil fuels has intensified the. . MINISTRY OF ENERGY The Ministry of Energy is to formulate and implement policies, projects, and programs on energy and provide oversight functions. improve reliability, and modernize Sierra Leone's energy landscape.

The government has introduced several measures to promote solar energy adoption, including tax exemptions for solar equipment, net metering policies, and relaxed import duties on solar panels and batteries. . Pakistan is experiencing an energy revolution as households and businesses rapidly adopt solar-plus-battery systems to meet their own energy needs. Making this transition more inclusive will require financing mechanisms that lower costs for underserved users and support grid upgrades for all. The payback period ranges. . onisation and ensuring grid reliability. 3 GW by 2025 and 45 GW by 2030, which would account for 20% and 50% of the total electricity supply, respectively. Integrated Energy Planning (IEP) is an effective and appropriate tool for realizing the government's vision of developing a sustainable, cost-efficient energy sector that best meets the country's strategic s and relevant stakeholders. . Pre-existing policies which supported this included the favorable net-metering policy — which subsidized customers to sell power into the grid at a price higher than just the fuel saving; legacy subsidy programs for off-grid solar for rural households and agriculture; and policies for development. .
