Grid-connected Solar PV project in Kahone
The 43.88 MWp PV project is part of the Scaling Solar initiative in Senegal, conducted jointly by the Senegalese authorities and the International Finance Corporation ("IFC", member of the World Bank Group).
The project will be implemented on a 36ha foothold near Kahone village, a few km east of Kaolack (regional capital) by Kahone Solaire SA, a Senegalese company created in 2018, responsible for the construction and the exploitation of the power plant. Kahone Solaire SA signed power purchase agreements with a term of 25 years with SENELEC, Senegalese national utility company.
