Solar Energy in The Gambia

Increasing investment into clean and reliable renewable energy for The Gambia is a top priority of the government. Due to its strategic location and ideal conditions, The Gambia is ideally suited for investment into the Solar Energy sector.

Solar Energy Case Study

Unique Energy, in a project funded by the United States Agency of International Development, recently developed the first mini-grid solar farm in the Gambia. Unique Energy has worked for GIEPA for several years and highlights their success work together:

With the support of the EU, Gambia embarks on large-scale solar energy

The Gambian government has just inaugurated its first large-scale solar energy production facility. Located in Jambur, the plant, financed by the European Union (EU) and the World Bank, has a capacity of 23 MWp.

Investing in Grid-connected Solar PV in The Gambia

The Solar Power Project in The Gambia is planning to install 10.5 MW capacity across two regional grids, supplying 145,000 people with clean energy through grid-connected households and shops.

The Gambia''s Energy Transition: From Solar Energy to Green

The Gambia entered a new era of energy development in April 2023 with the inauguration of its first large-scale solar energy facility in Jambur. Built by Chinese manufacturer Tebian Electric Apparatus, the 23 MW solar plant – equipped with an 8 MW electricity storage system – serves to reduce the country''s reliance on imported fossil fuels.
