The national electric utility of Senegal, Senelec, has signed a 20-year CCA with Infinity Power for a battery energy storage project.
While the Senegalese energy sector has for decades been characterized by the dominance of the Ministry of Energy and the state-owned power utility Senelec, reforms of the sector have been carried out with multi-actor involvement and under the strong influence of bi- and multinational institutions.
They also intend to effect the potential advancements in storage of energy by advancing energy sources. Renewable energy integration and decarbonization of world energy systems are made possible by the use of energy storage technologies.
Proposes an optimal scheduling model built on functions on power and heat flows. Energy Storage Technology is one of the major components of renewable energy integration and decarbonization of world energy systems. It significantly benefits addressing ancillary power services, power quality stability, and power supply reliability.
The potentials have already been exploited with large-scale projects via Independent Power Producers (IPPs), with the first solar parks commissioned in 2016 and 2017 . It is also important to note that oil and gas fields were first discovered in Senegal in 2014. Their exploitation was to begin in 2020.
In order to achieve universal access to modern energy, to spur industrialisation and consolidate a low-carbon, resilient and sustainable energy system, Senegal has recently joined the ranks of countries (South Africa, Indonesia, Viet Nam) having entered a Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP).
