West Africa: CAPEX, OPEX trends of mini-grid development

The study shows that in 2022, Burkina Faso had the highest average CAPEX per connection at $1,526, mainly due to high generation costs. Conversely, Sierra Leone had a significantly lower CAPEX per connection, at $267 in 2020, while Nigeria fell in between these figures. "A notable spike in CAPEX in 2020 across all three countries likely reflects intensive
