Does Senegal have a battery energy storage project?
The national electric utility of Senegal, Senelec, has signed a 20-year CCA with Infinity Power for a battery energy storage project.
What's going on at Niakhar solar power project?
Last month, the West African Development Bank (BOAD) approved $24 million loan for a 15MW/ 45MWh BESS at the Niakhar Solar Power project in the city of Niakhar. Senegal's first-ever BESS project was announced earlier in June this year - a 10MW/ 20MWh battery storage at a 16 MW solar farm developed by Africa REN.
Will Senegal's 'Infinity Power' Project help reduce electricity costs?
Expected to be one of the lowest cost producers of electricity in Senegal, the project is helping reduce the cost of electricity generation in the country, which has one of the highest generation costs in Sub-Saharan Africa. Infinity Power is Africa’s largest pure play renewable energy provider.
Is Senegal ready for a low-carbon economy?
"Senegal is constantly eyeing opportunities to push ahead its renewable energy agenda by embarking on solutions that speeds up its transition to a low-carbon economy", said Papa Mademba Biteye, General Manager - Senelec, as quoted by Energy-Storage.news
