The project will involve constructing multiple solar power plants and battery storage units. A flagship component is a 30 MWp solar power plant near Bissau, which aims to reduce electricity costs and diversify the energy mix.
The Guinea-Bissau Solar Energy Scale-up and Access Project will work on the development of solar energy generation and network enhancement, including the preparation and implementation for utility-scale
The solar plant will be located in Gardete, 8km from the capital Bissau and is being financed by the West African Development Bank at a tune of US $42.9m. It will also be covered by the programme for the Exploration of Renewable Energy Sources (Prover) of
The Guinea-Bissau Solar Energy Scale-up and Access Project will work on the development of solar energy generation and network enhancement, including the preparation and implementation for utility-scale solar parks and upgrade and expansion of solar grid infrastructure.
The Solar Energy Development and Electricity Access Project will involve constructing several solar power plants and battery storage units with participation from the private sector. A 30 MW solar power plant will be built near the capital, Bissau. This aims to reduce the average cost of electricity and diversify the energy mix.
International finance institution the World Bank will support the development of Guinea-Bissau''s first solar power plants with a $35 million grant through its Solar Energy Scale-up and Access project.
The World Bank has announced that it will support the development of Guinea-Bissau''s first solar power plants. Like other West African countries, Bissau wants to use this solution to decarbonise its electricity production and accelerate the electrification of its population.
The Guinea-Bissau Solar Energy Scale-up and Access Project aims to develop solar energy infrastructure, including the establishment of utility-scale solar parks and the upgrade of existing solar grid systems.

Currently, only 33% of Guinea-Bissau''s population has access to electricity, with the capital city of Bissau facing particularly high costs. The Solar Energy Scale-up and Access Project is expected to benefit residential, commercial, and industrial consumers nationwide — including those on the islands.
Bissau Solar PV Park 1 is a 20MW solar PV power project. It is planned in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau. According to GlobalData, who tracks and profiles over 170,000 power plants worldwide, the project is currently at the dormant stage. It will be developed in a single phase. Buy the profile here.
