The Off-Grid Taskforce is a government-led platform which brings together representatives of various Government ministries, statutory bodies, the private sector and the Cooperating Partners to coordinate initiatives and activities in the off-grid electrification space. The Taskforce was established with support from the Office of the Vice President and in cooperation with major Cooperating Partners in Zambia’s off-grid space and these include: European Union, World Bank, IFC, Swedish Embassy, DFID, AfDB and USAID. It’s a multi-stakeholder platform that identifies and addresses off-grid market barriers thereby improving conditions for investment in the Zambian off-grid space, with the ultimate goal of expanding electricity access in rural and peri-urban areas in line with government objectives.
