A Franco-Malian partnership for rural electrification
As part of the historic cooperation between the Conseil Départemental d'Ille-et-Vilaine and the Republic of Mali, the TREZOR project marks a new stage in the development of rural areas. This initiative, supported by FONDEM (Fondation Énergies pour le Monde), addresses the challenges of electrification and security in the Mopti region.
An innovative response to energy challenges
In central Mali, the Mopti region faces major challenges in terms of access to electricity. With only 24% of the population connected to the electricity grid, the installation of a solar-powered public lighting system represents an ideal solution for the economic and social development of these areas. This is the background to the TREZOR project. Fonroche Lighting has installed 200 self-sufficient solar streetlights in a dozen Malian localities. They are distributed along main roads and in the heart of attractive locations. They will bring comfort and tranquillity to residents, help socio-economic development and limit violence.
The TREZOR program has several key objectives for the local population:
- Improving night-time security against armed groups
- Development of evening business activities
- Strengthening the role of local authorities
- Protecting people and property
Local training and maintenance
Given the complex security context, Fonroche Lighting is committed to an in-depth skills transfer with the country. Local personnel receive comprehensive training in preventive and corrective maintenance, ensuring the autonomy and sustainability of the project.
A solution adapted to climatic conditions
The solar panels and lighting systems are specifically designed to withstand Mali's demanding climatic conditions. This optimum energy efficiency ensures reliable operation all year round.
