6 FAQs about [Angola smart grids energy]

Who is responsible for the electricity grid in Angola?

Responsibility for the grid in Angola is divided between 2 public institutions: RNT and ENDE. The sole off-taker for electricity in Angola, RNT is responsible for all the networks above 60KVA and the safe transmission of power to ENDE. ENDE is responsible for distribution grids - 60KVA and below.

Who manages the mini-grids in Angola?

PRODEL manages and maintains all the mini- grids in Angola, including the eight green mini-grids in Angola. RNT is the sole permitted off-taker for electricity in Angola (including cases where there is no transmission network), and therefore is also the off-taker for mini- grids projects in Angola.

How many solar/hybrid mini-grids are there in Angola?

At the time of publication of the 2025 Angola Energia Strategy documents, there were 8 solar/hybrid mini- grids, with others being diesel minigrids. The 8 green/ hybrid systems are utility owned, relatively large scale (around 5MW), and funded entirely by the government.

Is there a green mini-grid market in Angola?
