H.E. Corrado Pampaloni, Ambassador of the European Union to The Gambia, stated that this solar power plant is particularly important for the Gambia as it is part of the 'Gambia Electricity Restoration and Modernization Project' and contributes to a swift transition towards solar power and clean energy supply across the country.
Energy demand in The Gambia has increased by 5.5% per year in recent years. The new 23 MWp solar plant will significantly increase Gambia's current generation capacity of 98 MW and enable electrification of rural areas. A strong commitment
Mr. Ambroise Fayolle, Vice-President at the European Investment Bank (EIB), stated that he is delighted that the European Investment Bank is supporting this new solar plan with such economic and social impact for populations in Gambia, particularly in rural areas.
The Gambia's current generation capacity is 98 MW. Energy demand in The Gambia has increased by 5.5% per year in recent years and today's connection of the new 23 MWp solar plant to the national energy grid will significantly increase this capacity.
