Antananarivo, October 10, 2025 – The DECIM Fund has taken another step forward in its mission to improve access to essential services by announcing the signing of its second grant agreement under the Mini-Grids component.
This grant was awarded to Tozzi Green Madagascar under Window 1 – New Mini-Grids to support the development of sustainable energy infrastructure for underserved rural communities.
The funded project involves the installation of 19 solar and hydroelectric mini-grids in 52 communities spread across seven regions (Boeny, Betsiboka, Vakinankaratra, Itasy, Analamanga, Ambatosia, and Ihorombe), with a total installed capacity of 2,307 kW. Ultimately, this infrastructure will connect more than 5,000 new households and users to a reliable and affordable electricity supply.
This initiative is fully aligned with the DECIM Fund’s objective, which is to increase access to reliable, inclusive, and affordable energy and digital infrastructure, while promoting local economic development and improving the living conditions of rural communities.
Preparatory work is already underway. Following this agreement, Tozzi Green organized information and outreach sessions on October 23, 24, and 31, 2025, for the participating rural municipalities to present the project to local stakeholders and prepare for the start of construction.
The signing of this second contract marks a significant step forward for the Mini-grids component of the DECIM Fund and confirms the momentum toward achieving universal access to electricity in Madagascar.
