Existing businesses will benefit from improved access to power, which will enhance their competitiveness on the global market by reducing generator costs and improving their operational performance. In addition, new investment opportunities from existing and new sources will become more attractive encouraging private sector growth that in turn will drive new economic growth, increase incomes and ultimately reduce poverty in the country.
