Chad energy storage project
The CAES project is designed to charge 498GWh of energy a year and output 319GWh of energy a year, a round-trip efficiency of 64%, but could achieve up to 70%, China Energy said. 70%
The majority of its existing capacity comes from diesel, natural gas and heavy fuel oil generation. Chad is living an energy crisis that undermines its development possibilities with extremely limited electricity access (8%). The country is however rich of energy resources, including fossil fuels with strongest solar and wind energy potential.
8 According to the National Electricity Emergency Plan (NEEP) approved by the Government of Chad in July 2020. high cost of electricity from individual diesel generators that often exceed US$0.5 per kWh. The rest of the population—more than 90 percent of the people that live in Chad—face acute and chronic energy deprivation.
Chad framework has allowed private investment in energy production since only in recent years and as of 2018 Currently only one solar IPP (Djermaya – 28MW) is active and expected to reduce power supply failures and global price fluctuation. This project is also part of the Desert To Power Initiative.
There is One (1) active Independent Power Producers (IPPs) in Chad. Law No.036/PR/2019 relating to the national electricity law. Please read the law here
