What the source says

Over the forecast period, off-grid capacity in these regions will almost triple – reaching over 3 000 MW in 2022 – from industrial applications, solar home systems (SHSs), and mini-grids driven by government electrification programmes, and private sector investments.

Checked: the figure 3,000 megawattsis stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
