The solar power plant is regarded as a model project for the expansion of solar energy in Côte d'Ivoire. It is an important contribution to the fight against climate change and a decisive step towards increasing the share of renewable energies in the country's electricity supply to 45% by 2030.
We develop a TIMES model of the electricity sector for Côte d'Ivoire that provides least-cost solutions for power systems. Our estimates show that electricity demand could increase by a factor of 4.5 by 2050. Least cost solutions show that solar PV could provide at least 18% of total electricity generation in 2050.
