3 FAQs about [Senegal power generation container]

Can a shipping container power a small village in Senegal?

A “Solartainer”—a shipping container hosting 144 solar panels–powers up a small village in Senegal. Image: ChargePoint Before the ChargePoint project, Keur Niangane had no access to centralized electricity or public lighting, says Dr. Wolfgang Rams, CEO of Africa GreenTec.

How is electricity generated in Senegal?

Electricity generation, mainly on a build-own-operate (BOO) basis, is open to the private sector. Senelec, the sole buyer, signs power purchase contracts with independent power producers (IPPs). The Manantali Dam in Mali generates some of Senegal's electricity needs. Senegal's major source of electricity is diesel.

Can Senegal switch from diesel to coal?

Senegal is committed to shifting from a diesel-based power generation to cheaper energy sources. Senegal has thus put an option on the coal technology. The recent bid to build-own and operate a 125 MW coal-fired Sendou power station was awarded to a consortium of companies headed by the Swedish operator Nykomb Synergetics.
