Solar panels. Author: John S. Quarterman. License: Creative Commons, Attribution 2.0 Generic. Construction of a 200-MW solar power plant in Mali was officially launched on Friday, Mali’s national broadcaster ORTM reported. The project, worth over USD 200 million (EUR 184m), is a partnership between Mali and Russia.
The €77 million ($91.3 million) PV plant is Mali's first IPP solar project. Akuo Energy secured a 28-year power purchase agreement for the array from Mali's power utility, Energie du Mali-SA, in October 2015.
The Russian company NovaWind, a subsidiary of Rosatom, is constructing the plant, marking a significant step in the country’s energy sector. In recent weeks, Mali’s transitional government has intensified efforts to implement this solution nationwide.
According to the latest statistics from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), Mali had installed just 20 MW of PV capacity by the end of 2019. This content is protected by copyright and may not be reused.
