The solar street lighting project is a high priority project for the Kampala Climate Change Action Plan given its potential benefits to the city. The project is expected to be integrated with a city air quality monitoring system and WI FI hotspots to generate additional income to the city.
The current installation is 3,700 units comprising of mainly grid connected poles and only 170 solar based units. This installation covers only 8% of the paved road and street network in the city. An additional 700 units are under procurement with financing from internal sources
