Solar energy storage solution in Cote d Ivoire
The government of Côte d''Ivoire has announced that a lithium-ion battery energy storage system will be installed at the first-ever mega solar project in the country. The
A lithium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) made by Saft will be installed at a 37.5MWp solar PV power plant in Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast). It is the African country's first-ever large-scale solar project and the batteries will be used to smooth and integrate the variable output of the PV modules for export to the local electricity grid.
“The solar power plant is regarded as a model project for the expansion of solar energy in Côte d'Ivoire. It is an important contribution to the fight against climate change and a decisive step towards increasing the share of renewable energies in the country's electricity supply to 45% by 2030,” said KfW.

Located in Boundiali in the north of the country, the plant has already been providing up to 37MW of power since June 2023.
In the vast landscape of West Africa, silver sparkles in the sun: sustainable electricity is produced here with almost 70,000 solar modules,” said KfW. The 37.5MWp Boundiali solar photovoltaic PV power plant is owned and operated by CI-Energies (Côte d'Ivoire Energies).
Located in Boundiali in the north of the country, the plant has already been providing up to 37MW of power since June 2023. It was officially launched this week by Ivorian Prime Minister Beugré Mambé and German Parliamentary State Secretary Bärbel Kofler.
