4 FAQs about [Djibouti to build the largest energy storage project]

Why is Djibouti constructing a solar farm?

Djibouti''s $390 million solar farm is under construction in southern Djibouti as a result of a public-private partnership between Djibouti’s Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources and Green Enesys, a German renewable energy firm. Construction began in 2018 after $50 million in funding was secured by the World Bank and other financiers.

Will Djibouti be the first country to produce 100% green energy?

In its bid to become the first country on the continent to produce 100% green energy by 2035, Djibouti can also draw on other ambitious projects. These include the solar power project in the Grand Bara desert, for which work began in 2020.

How much energy does Djibouti consume?

According to USAID, Djibouti consumes 100 megawatts of electricity, but only 57 megawatts are reliably available to serve the population due to underdeveloped energy infrastructure. Much of Djibouti’s remaining energy comes from its own geothermal, solar, wind and biomass sources.

Why did Djibouti open up electricity production to independent operators?

For the government, the aim was to open up electricity production to independent operators so as to achieve energy independence as soon as possible. It should be noted that the state-owned company Électricité de Djibouti retains a monopoly on the transmission and distribution of electricity. The project was developed by Red Sea Power (RSP).
