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.
3.2%. Attracted by the stable political environment, several notable local and international solar PV companies like Oolu Solar and Baobab+ operate in Senegal, using cash sales, pay-as-you-go (PAYGo), and partnerships with micro-finance institutions
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).
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.
This specialized glass, with iron oxide content below 0.015%, achieves light transmittance rates exceeding 91%—compared to 88-89% for conventional solar glass—directly enhancing photovoltaic
The government of Senegal, under this programme, awarded 60 MW of solar PV capacity for two projects, the Kahone and Kael solar PV plants. Each project received six bids and the price achieved
