Pay-As-You-Go Solar Kit Sales Surge 54% in Sub-Saharan Africa in H1 2025

Overall sales of off-grid solar kits in Sub-Saharan Africa saw only a 1% increase during the first six months of 2025. This near-stagnation was primarily driven by a sharp drop in cash sales, which occurred as several major international energy access programs concluded and new regulatory changes were implemented in certain countries.
