Technical FAQs 4

How does cross-border electricity trading affect the West African power system?

In this study, we develop a multi-regional economic dispatch model of the West African power system, and quantify the impact of increasing cross-border electricity trading and renewable energy sources on: electricity generation cost, carbon emission, electricity supply and rapidly growing demand.

Do res and energy storage meet future electricity demand in West Africa?

However, the results provide an understanding of role of RES and energy storage in meeting future electricity demand, and facilitating electricity trading in a fully interconnected electricity network in West Africa. Furthermore, this work is an important step in analysing the development of the regional electricity market in the WAPP.

What are West Africans doing to improve their power systems?

West Africans are now moving in many directions to enhance their power systems. This report ofers an overview of the challenges and the great profusion of activity across the region. It should inform conversation at Nigeria Energy in Lagos (19-21 September) and at the Africa Energy Expo in Rwanda next year.

Where in West Africa is the biggest power generation project?

There are significant power generation projects planned or underway in most parts of West Africa, with regional economic heavyweight Nigeria the most active market and also home to the biggest scheme: the 3GW Mambilla hydroelectric plant.
