Abstract

Sub-Saharan Africa faces chronic power problems, with insufficient generation capacity. At the heart of Africa?s power crisis is insufficient investment in generating capacity. Most African governments are unable to fund their power needs and most utilities do not have investment grade ratings and are unable to raise sufficient debt at affordable rates. ODA and DFIs have only partially filled the funding gap. The fasted growing sources of finance are private sources and Chinese funding.
