Technical FAQs 4

Does Senegal have a solar energy sector?

Senegal's energy sector is increasingly reliant on solar power, making it essential to assess its long-term viability under changing climate conditions. This study evaluates future solar energy production in Senegal up to 2050, focusing on eight operational solar plants: Bokhol, Sakal, Malicounda, Kahone, Ten Merina, Mekhe, Ndiass, and Kael.

Will Senegal achieve 100 mw of solar power by 2030?

In Senegal, the country is set to achieve an additional installed capacity of 100 MW of solar, 100 MW of wind, 50 MW of biomass, and 50 MW of Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) by 2030 .

Do solar power plants in Senegal vary over time?

They found that Senegal experiences significant variability in solar resources over time and across different locations, depending on the year and specific site conditions. Niang et al. (2023) evaluated the seasonal performance of six solar power plants in Senegal, namely Bokhol, Sakal, Malicounda, Kahone, Ten Merina, and Mekhe.

How will Senegal contribute to the energy transition?

The country's nationally determined contributions outline two main goals relating to the energy transition: increasing the share of renewable energy in the national energy mix to 40 % by 2035 and increasing the use of natural gas to replace fossil fuel power plants (CDN Senegal, 2020).
