Analysis of Renewable Energy Deployment and Investment for Rural Health Facility Electrification: A Case Study of Kenya, Ghana, and Rwanda

Katundu Imasiku, Lorraine Saunyama · 2025 · Journal of Sustainable Development of Energy Water and Environment Systems

Summary. Poor electricity access in rural health facilities across Kenya, Ghana, and Rwanda undermines healthcare delivery and increases child mortality. The study examines how renewable energy investments and financing models can electrify these facilities. Findings show investment approaches vary by country, and decision-makers should develop public-private partnerships and innovative financing mechanisms to deploy renewable energy systems in rural health centers, supported by stronger collaboration between financial and health institutions.
