SENEGAL: Kahone and Kaél solar power plants go into

The Kahone and Kaél solar power plants are now injecting 60 MWp into Senegal''s national electricity grid. The new facilities are owned by a consortium of Engie, Meridiam and Senegal''s Fonds souverain d''investissements stratégiques (Fonsis). The solar plants were built under the International Finance Corporation''s (IFC) "Scaling Solar" programme.

Energy in Senegal

Senegal is committed to shifting from a diesel-based power generation to cheaper energy sources. Senegal has thus put an option on the coal technology. The recent bid to build-own and operate a 125 MW coal-fired Sendou power station was awarded to a consortium of companies headed by the Swedish operator Nykomb Synergetics. [12]
