Powering Social Infrastructure in Sierra Leone: Market Assessment and Roadmap for Schools

This executive summary outlines a market assessment and roadmap by Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) to address energy deficits in Sierra Leone's schools, identifying significant gaps in power access and proposing strategic recommendations for data investment, technical standardization, and sustainable maintenance models.

• A significant portion of educational facilities in Sierra Leone lack electricity, with 85 percent of primary schools and 45 percent of senior secondary schools without power. This results in nearly 10,000 schools needing power solutions, including 1,745 secondary schools. Closing the energy gap specifically for secondary education facilities is estimated to cost approximately USD 90 million.
