Will a new solar plant increase energy demand in the Gambia?

Energy demand in The Gambia has increased by 5.5% per year in recent years and today’s connection of the new 23 MWp solar plant to the national energy grid will significantly increase Gambia’s current generation capacity of 98 MW and enable electrification of rural areas. A strong commitment

How much solar power does the Gambia have?

According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), The Gambia only had 2 MW of installed solar photovoltaic capacity at the close of 2022. Similarly, in the realm of wind energy, only small-scale projects initiated by private investors and non-governmental organizations are currently in operation.

Why should the Gambia invest in a solar plant?

Further to this, as a clean energy source and a major vehicle for climate change mitigation, the solar plant will contribute to the realisation of The Gambia’s Nationally Determined Contributions”. Mr. Nani Juwara, Managing Director at National Water and Electricity Company (NAWEC) “The significance of this solar plant cannot be overemphasized.

Why is NAWEC launching a solar plant in the Gambia?

This marks the first time in the Gambia’s history where a utility scale solar plant of 23 Megawatts Solar PV capacity and 8-Megawatt hours battery storage is being commissioned. This solar plant allows NAWEC to finally shift away from expensive heavy fuel oil-based generation which is costly and harmful to the environment.
