Guinea has approved its first solar power project, an 84 MW plant in Khoumagueli, developed by InfraCo Africa. This landmark project signifies Guinea’s inaugural foray into solar energy, aiming to diversify its electricity supply and address persistent power shortages that have hampered the nation’s development. The project is expected to provide electricity to approximately 300,000 people, significantly improving access to power for a substantial portion of the population. This initiative aligns with the broader global trend towards renewable energy adoption, as highlighted in articles discussing the global solar energy boom [https://www.pvknowhow.com/news/global-solar-energy-boom-2023s-incredible-1000-gw-milestone/].
