The objective of the health component is to improve delivery of health services in rural health centers through increased access to modern energy by installing solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems at about 500 rural health centers including staff quarters. The MoH has agreed, with support from MoFPED, to allocate budget to cover the cost of maintenance, repair, and replacement of system parts beyond the first five years of operation and, as in ERT-2, procurement and implementation of the solar PV systems will be carried out by the MoH. Necessary Technical Assistance, capacity building activities and operation costs will be included.
