Rwanda National Model Analysis & Planning Support Programme Workshop 4 – SPLAT-MESSAGE

The final technical workshop of the Rwanda National Model Analysis and Planning Support Programme was held virtually from 26–30 January 2026. The workshop convened the national modelling team, key institutions, and technical partners to finalise national power supply scenarios, undertake sensitivity and regional analyses, and consolidate results to inform policy-relevant decision-making.

Building on previous programme milestones, the workshop focused on validating the national reference scenario, compared alternative pathways, and advanced the update of Rwanda’s 2025 Least Cost Power Development Plan (LCPDP). Participants engaged in practical, hands-on exercises using the SPLAT-MESSAGE platform to test key assumptions, assess system sensitivities, and incorporate regional power trade considerations. The workshop strengthened institutional capacity for advanced energy planning and support evidence-based, resilient, and sustainable power sector development in Rwanda.

The event was held behind closed doors; attendance was restricted to invited participants.
