This study conducted an in-depth analysis of the performance of the largest Grid-Connected Solar Photovoltaic System in Burkina Faso from 2019 to 2021. The research utilized measured data and simulated the plant's performance using the PVGIS database. . Power production in Burkina Faso is mainly based on thermal power plants, with particularly high costs. There are interconnections with neighbouring countries, but imports are limited. The rural electrification rate is now 5. 7 MWp solar photovoltaic plant.

The Government of Burkina Faso has signed a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) agreement with a local developer and a Dutch clean energy investment firm to develop a major solar and battery storage system. This state-of-the-art facility, valued at $50 million, will produce 200,000 solar panels annually. This 18-megawatt (MW) solar initiative, backed by strategic financial commitments from the Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa (SEFA) and the African. . Dédougou Solaire has secured €17. 2 million in debt from the Dutch development bank FMO—via its Building Prospects Fund—and a €6 million concessional package from the African Development. . Since the last iteration, significant progress has been made with the successive commissioning of new solar power plants in Burkina Faso in 2024, and the continuation of electrification efforts despite the security crisis.
