FAQs 6

What is the West Africa Energy Program?

The West Africa Energy Program run by US AID’s Power Africa division includes support for five solar projects which will provide about 150MW of electricity, including the Kodeni and Nagréongo solar plants in Burkina Faso and a 250MW solar / hydropower hybrid plant in Ghana.

What is the main source of power in West Africa?

Hydroelectric power is the dominant source of power in the region and is the focus of most of the large schemes underway, although there are also plans to develop more gas-fired plants and some initiatives to develop coal-fired capacity. West African countries have now begun to develop utility-scale solar power.

What are West Africans doing to improve their power systems?

West Africans are now moving in many directions to enhance their power systems. This report ofers an overview of the challenges and the great profusion of activity across the region. It should inform conversation at Nigeria Energy in Lagos (19-21 September) and at the Africa Energy Expo in Rwanda next year.

How much solar power does Africa have?

Currently, the deployment of solar PV and wind power in Africa is roughly evenly matched, with installed capacities of solar PV at around 8 GW as of 2020–21 12, and wind power at 6.5 GW 13. For solar power, this number is strongly dominated by South Africa and Egypt, which cover around 80% of installed capacity on the continent 12.

Where in West Africa is the biggest power generation project?

There are significant power generation projects planned or underway in most parts of West Africa, with regional economic heavyweight Nigeria the most active market and also home to the biggest scheme: the 3GW Mambilla hydroelectric plant.

Are solar PV and wind power projects cost-competitive?

The typical levelised cost of electricity (LCOE) of solar PV and wind power projects has dropped substantially and resulted in cost-competitiveness with fossil fuel and hydropower plants 2.
