120MW of solar energy on Ugandan grid

The Government identified Solar PV technology as a critical renewable energy technology that will ensure that it meets its emission targets under the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) but also its energy needs in the short, medium to long term in line with the National Vision 2040.

The Government identified and proposed six possible sites in Kapeeka (20MW), Iganga (20MW), Tororo (20MW), Kumi (20MW), Bukedea (20MW), and Paliisa (20MW) for development by TotalEnergies EP Uganda.

The Beyond the Grid for Africa (BGFA) program has selected two clean electricity providers to receive a grant for the installation of solar home systems in Uganda. The grant of $5 million has been awarded to the local subsidiaries of Engie Energy Access and d.light in Uganda. Angola (284 MW), South Africa (111.8 MW), Egypt (80 MW), Ghana (71.3 MW), and Mozambique (41.9 MW) were the top countries for solar capacity additions in 2022. Angola commissioned the 188 MW Biópio solar project and the 96 MW Baía Farta solar project.

Institute for Future Technologies and Research (IFTR), KK 15 Ave, Kigali, Rwanda is an international wing of Global Advanced Training & Educational Trust (India). We’ve been reaching out to young people for over 10 years at Institute of Solar Technology Academy of EV Technology and Energy materials Research Centre in India, helping them to connect with green energy and build their skills, knowledge and confidence to do something to protect our mother earth. Through our work with young people, their families, schools and communities, we’re aiming to inspire a new generation of sustainability champions and help young people make positive choices for a brighter future for our planet.

The Future of Solar Energy considers only the two widely recognized classes of technologies for converting solar energy into electricity — photovoltaics (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP), sometimes called solar thermal) — in their current and plausible future forms.

We concentrate on the use of grid-connected solar-powered generators to replace conventional sources of electricity. For the more than one billion people in the developing world who lack access to a reliable electric grid, the cost of small-scale PV generation is often outweighed by the very high value of access to electricity for lighting and charging mobile telephone and radio batteries. In addition, in some developing nations it may be economic to use solar generation to reduce reliance on imported oil, particularly if that oil must be moved by truck to remote generator sites.
Now, with solar photovoltaic technology becoming more and more affordable, scalable and accessible, that dream is getting closer to reality. This online course looks at solar PV in depth, examining its potential for today and the near future, exploring the technical challenges, and assessing the commercial opportunities. It offers you an unparalleled insight into the global solar power market, and will give you the knowledge and practical details to shape and lead the future of solar energy.
