    FAQs about Ivory Coast Solar Home Energy Storage

    Why did Ivory Coast build its first solar power plant?

    As part of its drive to diversify electricity generation sources and increase the share of renewable energies in its energy mix (45% by 2030), Ivory Coast commissioned RMT to build the country's very first photovoltaic solar power plant, with a capacity of 37.5 MWp, spread over 69,440 550 Wp solar panels and 168 inverter-strings of 250 kVA.

    Who builds a solar power plant in Ivory Coast?

    RMT builds a 37.5 MWp solar power plant and installs Boundiali photovoltaic solar power plant in northern Ivory Coast was built in partnership with the country's government, in particular CI-ENERGIES, and with financial support from Germany. It has been in operation since July 2023.

    How much solar energy will Ivory Coast have in 5 years?

    “In five years, the share of solar energy will be 9%,” stated Prime Minister of Ivory Coast, Robert Beugré Mambé during the power plant inauguration on April 24. Its capacity is set to expand to 80 MW by 2025, with financing for the expansion already approved by the government.

    Will a lithium-ion battery energy storage system be installed in Côte d'Ivoire?

    A lithium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) made by Saft will be installed at a 37.5MWp solar PV power plant in Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast).
