6 FAQs about [Connecting solar Togo]

Is the new Togo solar power plant sustainable?

H.E. Mohammed Saif Al Suwaidi, Director General of ADFD, said: “This new Togo solar power plant truly reflects the level of sustainable impact we can achieve through the ADFD and IRENA renewable energy development program.

Where does Togo get its energy from?

To meet demand, Togo has to import most of its energy from Ghana, Cote D'Ivoire and Nigeria. The country’s main source of energy is biomass. About 76% comes from firewood, charcoal and vegetable waste. Petroleum products account for just over a quarter of energy needs, while electricity derived from thermal, hydropower and solar accounts for 4%.

What are energy systems in Togo?

Energy systems in many countries, including Togo, are a balance between energy that’s generated centrally at a large scale and energy that’s generated at a smaller scale closer to where it’s used. Balancing the two sources makes energy supply more reliable and stable.

Does Togo have universal access to electricity?

Access has increased in Togo from 17% in 2000 to 53% in 2020. This is higher than the figure (43%) for all low income countries but has a long way to go. The small West African country plans to achieve universal access to electricity by 2030. Its main challenges are capacity, technology and expertise for generation.

Does Togo have a potential for wind energy?

Togo’s potential for wind energy is not high. Our study also identified a number of challenges with renewable energy, however. For example, the Togolese government needs to determine the generation potential from various renewable energy sources. The head of a renewable energy research centre said:

Who developed AMEA Togo solar?

The plant was developed by AMEA Togo Solar, a subsidiary of AMEA Power – a global renewable energy developer based in the UAE. IRENA remained heavily involved in the project throughout the process, brokering discussions between the Togolese government, ADFD and AMEA Power, and presenting solutions to construction and financing challenges.
