Abstract

This report provides a brief introduction to the Zambian power sector before diving into the details of the Scaling Solar and GET FiT solar photovoltaic (PV) auction programmes - both of which have broken African price records - to understand the full array of choices that were made around the design and implementation of these solar auctions in Zambia, while simultaneously drawing out the key lessons for the region.

This research is part of the Energy and Economic Growth Applied Research Programme.
