When will a battery energy storage system start in Senegal?
Construction of the battery energy storage system is expected to commence in early 2024 at the Tobène substation in Thies and is expected to become operational in 2025. Once complete, it will be one of the largest of its kind in West Africa, and will help Senegal to avoid approximately 37,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions each year.
Why is battery storage important in Senegal?
Battery storage offers incredible opportunities for Senegal to reap the benefits of renewables, while ensuring people get a secure, reliable supply of energy. We are excited to begin a promising new chapter in Senegal and further strengthen our work in the renewable energy sector.”
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.
How will the energy system work in Senegal?
The system will utilise reserve energy when there are deficits, bring power and grid assets online after failures, and supply electricity to the cities in the northern part of Senegal during power outages.
How will eaif support Senegal's Clean Power Project?
EAIF acted as co-lender alongside the Dutch development bank FMO, to support the development of the €42m landmark project. A Euro equivalent US$1.5m capital grant extended by PIDG Technical Assistance will ensure the project is designed to maximise supply of clean power to Senegal’s grid, whilst remaining economically viable.
How much energy has Senegal added in 6 years?
Within 6 years, Senegal has added more than 345MW of clean power, accounting for nearly a quarter of its energy mix. This is a concrete example of the impact of policy implementation prioritising progress towards net-zero and accelerating energy access to above 70%, the 12th highest in Africa.
