Senegal has begun commercial operations at a new solar energy facility that combines photovoltaic power with lithium-ion battery storage, the first of its kind in West Africa, as the country of over 18 million people moves to strengthen its electricity grid. . The West African nation, where over 60% of the population have access to electricity—one of the highest in the sub region—aims to achieve universal energy access by 2030. Founded by a team of highly experienced energy, finance and social impact professionals, we develop, construct, own, and operate large-scale BESS, positioning us at the forefront of. . 99 energy storage projects sprouting across West Africa like baobab trees in the savanna. Why? Because the region's energy landscape is shifting faster than Sahara sands in a harmattan wind. Hybrid project combines 10 MW battery storage with an existing 16 MW solar power plant.
