Something About Company
The Rural Electrification Unit is a government entity within Lesotho’s Ministry of Energy and Meteorology tasked with expanding electricity access to underserved rural areas across the Kingdom of Lesotho. Established to address the significant urban-rural energy divide, the unit implements grid extension projects and promotes off-grid renewable solutions in remote mountain villages and agricultural districts. It works in coordination with the Lesotho Electricity Company and international development partners to finance and construct distribution infrastructure. The organization plays a critical role in the government’s National Strategic Development Plan targets for universal energy access, with particular focus on electrifying schools, health centers, and households in the country’s hard-to-reach highland regions.
