The Gambian utility NAWES plans to develop the country's first large-scale solar photovoltaic power plant project with an installed capacity of 20 GW and an energy storage system, which is one of the pilot projects of
the national power revival and modernization plan.
The World Bank also said it is helping the project find professional consultants (companies).
It is reported that the World Bank has sent a letter expressing interest in selecting a cooperative consultant for the PV project
.
The document says selected consultants must begin their services this fall and last about 36 months
.
Interested companies will not be able to submit offers
until October 4.
The contract includes the management and supervision of the solar power plant, 132 kV transmission lines and substations, and the SCADA/EMS system
.
According to another World Bank document, the solar project is expected to have a capacity of 10-20 megawatts and may include a battery-powered storage system to adapt production to demand and minimize grid-connection issues
.
The project can be configured as a single power station in the Brikama area, or as 3-5 small power stations in the Greater Banjol area with the same
total capacity.
"The available capacity in the Greater Banjol region was 27 MW in October 2017, while demand was 70 MW, which led to widespread blackouts, with even some areas having only 2-3 hours of electricity per day throughout the summer," the World Bank revealed
in the filing.
The project is part of The Gambia's Power Renaissance and Modernisation Project, costing up to $41 million to improve electricity supply while increasing the Gambia's grid capacity
.
The Gambia has an installed capacity of approximately 99 MW, of which 88 MW is located in the Greater Banjul area
.
Almost all electricity generation is linked to
the generation of fossil fuels.
The West African country's electricity network consists mainly of mini-grids, and the government hopes to improve the domestic grid system
by converting to a hybrid mini-grid with renewable generation capacity.
With a population of about 2 million and access to electricity at only 35%, the government introduced legislation to promote renewable energy, the Renewable Energy Act
, in 2013.
However, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency, insufficient financial, human and institutional resources hinder the implementation of the
government's plan.
