Technical FAQs 4

Can PGIS-Solargis be used to estimate solar energy yield in Somalia?

The PVGIS-Solargis database can be used to estimate PV energy yield for various locations in Somalia, demonstrating the potential of solar energy in the region. Fig. 12. The estimated monthly electricity generation and recorded PV generation in the Bacadweyne site. 8. Discussion of key findings

Can solar energy reduce energy costs in Somalia?

The simulation results using PVGIS revealed that the solar PV installation in Somalia produced two-fold the energy amount compared to PVs installed in Germany. Hence, RE, such as solar energy, can reduce electricity costs and the negative environmental impacts .

How much power does Mogadishu have?

Overall, the combined capacity of Mogadishu Power Supply and Blue-sky Energy was 30 MW and 18 MW of diesel engines, respectively. Although many solar projects have been implemented in Somalia, the cost of electricity remains high.

How much solar energy does Somalia use?

Based on the current installed energy capacity in Somalia, solar energy contributes approximately 11.9% of total power generation in the country and is expected to increase in the upcoming years.
