With the ongoing solar projects under development in Angola with an installed capacity amounting to 500 MW, it is urgent to start thinking about efficient energy storage solutions. What structural challenges must be addressed for Angola to seize its renewable energy potential?
The projects will be installed in the Moxico, Lunda Norte, Lunda Sul, Bie, and Malanje provinces, adding 296 MW of solar capacity and 719 MWh of battery energy storage system to the Angolan grid. The facilities will provide electricity to power one million consumers. Clean energy firm MCA Group has been tasked with the construction of the projects.
Clean energy firm MCA Group has been tasked with the construction of the projects. An agreement for the provision of $900 million in funding to support the implementation of the Angola Solar Energy Project was reached between Angola’s Ministry of Energy and Water and the U.S. Export-Import Bank in June 2023.
U.S.-based power product and solutions companies active in Angola include GE, Cummins, Caterpillar, and Westinghouse Turbines, among others. In addition, European companies (Germany, Portugal) supply equipment to the energy sector. Portuguese, Brazilian, and Chinese construction companies generally lead in project construction.
Fernando Prioste, CEO of COBA Group, talks to The Energy Year about Angola’s potential for deploying pumped-storage hydroelectricity and hydrogen solutions as it develops a robust energy industry and the central role of COBA Group in the country’s power arena.
An agreement for the development of a 150 MW solar plant was signed between Angola’s Ministry of Energy and Water and UAE-based renewable energy company Masdar in Dubai last December. The 150 MW project will produce electricity to power 90,000 homes, contributing to job creation, emissions reduction and efforts to increase national electrification.
