However, despite all its available potential, the country’s energy sector especially solar energy is still in its infancy stage. The main objective of this systematic review is to identify the present status of solar energy utilization and development in Ethiopia and any possible challenges that may hinder its’ utilization and development.
There are also, ongoing solar energy utilization, like Metehara, in Oromia, gad in Somali and Dicheto in Afar regional states. Generally, solar radiation utilization status in Ethiopia is very low because, its’ installation material is imported from abroad and needs huge amounts of foreign currency.
For effective and efficient utilization of solar energy in Ethiopia, the following recommendations and policy implications will be useful: • Government should subsidize the cost of importation of Renewable Energy Technologies (RET) most especially solar PV to bring down the high cost in Ethiopia, and make it affordable.
Solar PV capacity in Ethiopia has almost tripled in the past five years. However, 14 MW of solar PV systems has been installed up to now, counting for 0.3% of the Nation’s total energy capacity. Ethiopia’s solar capacity is expected to increase in the coming years with the number of ongoing solar PV projects.
