Important as a port, São Tomé is located on Ana Chaves Bay in the northeast of São Tomé Island, and Ilhéu das Cabras lies nearby offshore.
Solar energy, with its strong decentralized potential, is an energy potential for Santomeans in rural and peri-urban areas. Since the colonial era, STP has been supporting its renewable potential and intends to intensify its use, particularly hydro energy.
São Tomé and Príncipe (often called just "São Tomé" for short) is a small island nation off the Atlantic coast of Central Africa, located in the Gulf of Guinea, straddling the Equator, west of Gabon.Discovered and claimed by Portugal in the late 15th century, the islands'' sugar-based economy gave way to coffee and cocoa in the 19th century -- all grown with plantation

''As of 2020, the Government of Sao Tome and Principe is planning for the hybridization of one of the main thermal power plants (Santo Amaro) with solar photovoltaic technology through the Energy Transition and Institutional Support
A solar power plant will soon be built in São Tomé and Principe. The government of this Central African island country has chosen to build the plant south of Santo Amaro, a town located in the north of the island of São Tomé.
The first phase of the program will include the installation of solar PV plants at the São Tomé international airport, as well as on the island of Príncipe, with capacities of 1.1 kW and 300 kW, respectively. Cleanwatts'' local partner Pleno Ambiente STP will undertake the installation, operation, and maintenance works.

São Tomé and Príncipe is not a cheap destination – though it''s far more reasonable than other African island idylls like Mauritius or Seychelles; for a top-notch hotel, think €300 a night rather than €3000. On a tight budget, you might be able to get by on €100 per person per day – or even a little less.
Portuguese cleantech company Cleanwatts has signed an agreement with São Tomé and Príncipe in Africa for the production and sale of clean energy. The company will collaborate with the public utility Power and Water Company (EMAE) to install solar power plants across the country.

Abreu noted that "the panels and other equipment have arrived in the Port of Ana Chaves in São Tomé, following delays and uncertainties due to a shortage of maritime transport." According to World Bank data, 76.6% of the population of São Tomé and Príncipe have access to electricity, generated primarily through imported diesel (92%).
According to data from the International Renewably Energy Agency (IRENA), Sao Tome and Principe did not have any grid-connected solar generation capacity installed at the end of 2021. The World Bank says Sao Tome and Principe has an electricity access rate of around 76%, with 92% of the total coming from imported diesel.
The project is financed by the African Development Bank (AfDB). A solar power plant will soon be built in São Tomé and Principe. The government of this Central African island country has chosen to build the plant south of Santo Amaro, a town located in the north of the island of São Tomé.
The government of São Tomé and Príncipe is launching a tender for the construction of a 1.5 MWp solar photovoltaic plant south of Santo Amaro. The project is financed by the African Development Bank (AfDB). A solar power plant will soon be built in São Tomé and Principe.
Cleanwatts told pv magazine that it started developing 1.1 MW at Sao Tome airport and 300 kWp at Principe airport in August. It expects to complete the arrays by the end of this year. Another 300 kWp will be installed next year at other communities in Sao Tome.
The facility, located on the island of Principe, has a capacity of 1 MW and is expected to be operational by 2024. Currently, renewable energies only represent 5% of the electric mix of São Tomé and Principe archipelago. This clean electricity comes mainly from the Contador hydroelectric plant with a capacity of 1.9 MW.
