Among current developments is a mega-project consisting of seven photovoltaic plants that will be commissioned by Q2 2023 and additional projects funded by the Angolan and US governments. Angola has significant solar potential; it is estimated that the country has 16.3 GW of solar power resources.
Among these, 3,436 MW (120 projects) are eligible for grid connection in the short term until 2017. Among the provinces of Angola, Luanda, Cuanza Norte and Cuanza Sul are the ones with the highest viability for projects due to the strong capacity of the grid to absorb intermittent power.
