3 FAQs about [West Africa Factory Photovoltaic Energy Storage Project]

What is Africa Ren's Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)?

Africa REN will construct and operate the facility under a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA) designed to solve issues associated with intermittent energy supply, a key challenge of integrating renewable energy into the grid. Within 6 years, Senegal has added more than 345MW of clean power, accounting for nearly a quarter of its energy mix.

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.
