Senegal

The government of Senegal has been working with the World Bank Group to develop 60 megawatts of solar power through Scaling Solar. According to World Bank data, over  70% of the population of Senegal currently has access to electricity. The planned Scaling Solar projects underscore Senegal’s commitment to integrating renewable energy resources into its energy mix.

The successful tender set a new benchmark for the region. With prices under 4 US cents per kWh, solar energy will become Senegal’s cheapest energy source.
