Technical FAQs 4

Will Cameroon have a solar power plant?

The Maroua and Guider power plants, Cameroon’s first public solar pro-ject with a combined capacity of 30 MW, were commissioned by MINEE in Sep-tember 2023. Additionally, a 20 MW solar power plant is planned for the city of Garoua.

How much money does Cameroon need to build a solar power plant?

The first two modular solar power plants in Maroua and Guider, with battery storage and a combined capacity of 30 MW, were commissioned in Sep-tember 2023. The Cameroonian government states that Cameroon needs almost 2000 billion euros to finance its energy projects.

What is the energy potential of Cameroon?

3.1. Government Strategies for Energy Production Cameroon’s energy potential primarily comprises hydroelectricity (64%), ther-mal energy (30%), and other renewable energies (about 6%). The installed ca-pacity increased from 933 MW to 1650 MW by 2020, falling short of the planned target of 3000 MW by a deficit of 1350 MW.

How much money does Cameroon need for energy projects?

The Cameroonian government states that Cameroon needs almost 2000 billion euros to finance its energy projects. These funds will support the construction of the Limbé gas power plant (350 MW), the Grand Eweng, Chol-let, Kikot, Katsina Ala (285 MW), and Menchum (72 MW) hydroelectric dams, among others.
