Senegal Solar Manufacturing: A Public-Private Partnership Guide
Discover a proven Public-Private Partnership model to build a solar manufacturing plant in Senegal. Align government goals with investor needs to drive growth.
This study focuses on eight (8) solar plants, mainly located in western Senegal (Bokhol, Sakal, Malicounda, Kahone, Ten Merina, Mekhe, Ndiass, and Kael), with particular emphasis on Ten Merina, where the observation data used were collected. Ten Merina is located in the department of Tivaoune, the region of Thies (the second most populated region).
They found that Senegal experiences significant variability in solar resources over time and across different locations, depending on the year and specific site conditions. Niang et al. (2023) evaluated the seasonal performance of six solar power plants in Senegal, namely Bokhol, Sakal, Malicounda, Kahone, Ten Merina, and Mekhe.
Senegal's energy sector is increasingly reliant on solar power, making it essential to assess its long-term viability under changing climate conditions. This study evaluates future solar energy production in Senegal up to 2050, focusing on eight operational solar plants: Bokhol, Sakal, Malicounda, Kahone, Ten Merina, Mekhe, Ndiass, and Kael.
Despite the higher resolution and detailed regional climate information provided by the CORDEX-CORE datasets, biases are noticed. These results suggest a bias correction to better estimate the future changes in solar energy production in Senegal. A bias correction is performed using the method described in Eq. 5 (Fig. 4b).
