When will a battery energy storage system start in Senegal?
Construction of the battery energy storage system is expected to commence in early 2024 at the Tobène substation in Thies and is expected to become operational in 2025. Once complete, it will be one of the largest of its kind in West Africa, and will help Senegal to avoid approximately 37,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions each year.
Why is battery storage important in Senegal?
Battery storage offers incredible opportunities for Senegal to reap the benefits of renewables, while ensuring people get a secure, reliable supply of energy. We are excited to begin a promising new chapter in Senegal and further strengthen our work in the renewable energy sector.”
Will Senegal's 'Infinity Power' Project help reduce electricity costs?
Expected to be one of the lowest cost producers of electricity in Senegal, the project is helping reduce the cost of electricity generation in the country, which has one of the highest generation costs in Sub-Saharan Africa. Infinity Power is Africa’s largest pure play renewable energy provider.
What is Senelec's 'PETN N'Diaye' project?
The system will enable Senelec to stabilise the nation’s electricity grid and pave the way for further renewable energy growth in Senegal. The project will be operated by Infinity Power’s Parc Eolien Taiba N’Diaye (PETN) windfarm, located approximately 70km north of Dakar.
