•Fertile Land
•Young population
•High poverty levels
•High unemployment
•Un exploited resource & potential
•Main reasons
•Lack of financial resources to turn resources into wealth
•Severe energy shortage rendering the majority of population into
development spectators
IMPORTANCE OF CLEAN ENERGY FOR ZAMBIA
• DESIRABLE SITUATION
