Exploring the Potential of Solar, Wind, and Hydro Power in Equatorial
According to a recent study by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), Equatorial Guinea has the potential to generate up to 3,000 megawatts (MW) of solar power, which could significantly contribute to the country''s energy mix and help meet its growing electricity demand.

Renewables such as solar panels, wind turbines and hydroelectric dams generate electricity without burning fuels that emit greenhouse gases and other pollutants. As the costs of solar panels and wind turbines have fallen dramatically in recent years, renewables now represent the cheapest source of new electricity generation in many parts of the
A Solution to Global Warming, Air Pollution, and Energy
This infographic summarizes results from simulations that demonstrate the ability of Equatorial Guinea to match all-purpose energy demand with wind-water-solar (WWS) electricity and heat
Equatorial Guinea
The share of renewable energy in the total final energy consumption (TFEC) has been decreasing steadily since 1990. In 2012, renewables accounted for 29.2 per cent of the final energy mix. Traditional solid biofuels form the biggest share of renewable sources at 29.0 per cent of TFEC in 2012, while hydro
A Solution to Global Warming, Air Pollution, and Energy
This infographic summarizes results from simulations that demonstrate the ability of Equatorial Guinea to match all-purpose energy demand with wind-water-solar (WWS) electricity and heat supply, storage, and demand response continuously every 30 seconds for three years (2050-2052). All-purpose energy is for electricity, transportation,
Equatorial Guinea: Energy Country Profile
Renewable energy here is the sum of hydropower, wind, solar, geothermal, modern biomass and wave and tidal energy. Traditional biomass – the burning of charcoal, crop waste, and other organic matter – is not included. This can be an important energy source in lower-income settings.
Equatorial Guinea pg1
Equatorial Guinea receives moderate levels of solar irradiation of 4.3 kWh/m2/day and specific yield of 3.7 kWh/ kWp/day indicating a moderate technical feasibility for solar in the country. Equatorial Guinea has installed a self-sufficient solar microgrid system with 5 MW solar modules for a reliable power
