In addition,  the recent oil price war between Russia and Saudi Arabia has posed an  existential threat to the oil and gas industry in the region.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Nigeria&rsquo;s Rural Electrification Agency (REA) recently unveiled  solar-related pandemic response measures, including the emergency  provision of solar home systems and solar mini-grid solutions for  medical and health centers. The REA under the Nigeria Electrification  Project joined hands with the African Development Bank and the World  Bank to expedite grants for solar home system providers and PV mini-grid  developers.<\/p>\n<p>Overseas players are pouncing on the opportunity for off-grid system  demand. German pay-as-you-go solar distributor Redavia announced plans  to provide its systems to companies in Ghana and Kenya free for six  months before offering the option of signing a lease.<\/p>\n<p>Das added: &ldquo;Sub-Saharan nations are facing an unprecedented crisis  with disastrous and unpredictable consequences to the oil industry. The  pandemic and price war has led to a historical fall in crude oil prices,  with such falls last seen during the Gulf War. In times of such  difficulty, turning to solar PV might be a great initiative. However,  rigorous planning is needed to ensure that disruptions in the global  solar PV supply chain doesn&rsquo;t affect this shift that is planned to take  place.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div
