Cameroon to Develop 4 GW of Renewable Energy by 2035
Proposed projects will encompass solar, wind, hydro, biomass and battery storage solutions.
Scientific articles and investigative reports on energy production in Cameroon have enabled an assessment of the current electrical energy production. The 2035 production estimate is based on the Energy Sector Development Projects (PDSEN) report in Cameroon. The cur-rent production is estimated at around 1600 MW. Considering the ongoing
Even with the commissioning of the 420 MW Nachtigal power plant currently under construction, the level of installed capacity in Cameroon will hardly reach 5 %. How to explain the slow development of hydropower in a country like Cameroon, which suffers from a terrifying energy deficit and still depends heavily on fossil fuels for power generation?
Many large hydropower and storage plants in Cameroon might feed the Inga-Calabar power highway. Small-hydropower and pumped-storage are showing good prospects for electrifying many remote areas in Cameroon. A few hydropower projects are under construction while most of them are still awaiting financing.
The first hydroelectric power stations in Cameroon were inaugurated in 1929 to supply electricity to the Muyuka region as a private operation.
