Savannah Energy plans to install up to 300 MW of solar and a battery to power operations at its recently acquired Doba Oil project in Chad. It has also pledged up to 100 MW of solar and the same amount of wind to generate power for the capital, N’Djamena.
The International Renewable Energy Agency says Chad had 1 MW of grid-connected solar by the end of 2021. Savannah Energy has signed a deal with the government of Chad to develop up to 400 MW of solar-plus-battery projects in the country.
He said it is likely “the largest ever by a British company” in Chad. The energy company said the Centrale Solaire de Komé project will likely be approved in 2023. It is expected generate its first electricity in 2025. For the Centrales d’Energie Renouvelable de N’Djamena facility, the respective dates given were 2023-24 and 2025-26.
In Chad, Power Africa transaction advisory and technical assistance helped secure a $20.6 million (€18 million) loan to bring the 42 MW Djermaya Solar project to financial close.
At 300 MW, the Centrale Solaire de Komé facility would be “the largest solar project in sub-Saharan Africa (excluding South Africa),” according to the energy company. It said it would also represent “the largest battery storage project in Africa .”
