Togo Gets $40m Loan For 42 MWp Solar Energy Project From West African Development Bank
Togo has received a fresh loan from the West African Development Bank for the development of a 42 MWp solar power plant in Awandjelo area of North Togo. The bank is an international Multilateral Development Bank meant for the development of Francophone and also Lusophone in West Africa.

Among the loans is for the construction of the 42 MWp solar power plant at Awandjelo, Kara, Togo. The vital goal of the Togo solar energy project is to diversify the energy mix of the country as well as decrease the electrical energy generation costs. The new solar power project will certainly raise the share of renewable energy in Togo's power mix from the here and now 27 percent to a significant 40 per cent in 2024. The country is also anticipated to raise the electrification rate from today 59 per cent to 75 percent in 2025.

Across Africa, solar is being pressed lastly on the back of the demand for renewable energy, in addition to the reality that poor grid connectivity in the continent indicates the potential for off-grid along with on grid solar is significant. Include poor energy accessibility, as well as the situation for solar is immense.

First Togolese utility-scale PV plants are on the way
Togo’s AT2ER invites bidders to submit applications for prequalification for development and construction of photovoltaic systems totaling up to 80-megawatt capacity. Deadline for prequalifying is the 30th of March, 2020. The installations will be located in the central and Kara regions of Togo. These will be the 1st large-scale PV arrays in the republic. As of the turn of the year 2018/19, there was only 3 megawatts of solar generating capacity installed in the Western African state. The country often suffers from electricity shortage, with the power accessible to only 28 percent of the nation’s 7.5-mn population. The auction is being held within the framework of Scaling Solar program by the World Bank. The one-stop store scheme is meant to support privately-funded PV systems tied to the grid. The projects are provided with development assistance as well as all kinds of analytical support. The Togolese Republic joined the initiative half a year ago.
