IRENA (2024), Investment opportunities for utility-scale solar and wind areas: Mali, International Renewable Energy Agency, Abu Dhabi. This report summarises IRENA analysis to identify favourable zones in Mali for utility-scale solar PV and onshore wind projects, and their associated techno-economic parameters.
The analysis reveals that a significant portion of Mali’s land area is well suited to solar PV (398.7 GW) and onshore wind (1.25 GW) development, with priority zones identified along existing and planned transmission lines and road networks.
Like most West African countries, Mali relies heavily on fossil fuels but has significant potential in solar and wind energy. Mali’s strategy is oriented towards fostering the development of renewables even though their share, except for hydro, remains rather low.
As Mali grapples with an ongoing electricity crisis that hampers economic growth, transitional President Assimi Goïta laid the foundation stone for a new 200 MW photovoltaic solar power plant. The Russian company NovaWind, a subsidiary of Rosatom, is constructing the plant, marking a significant step in the country’s energy sector.
Hamathe Mane, Principal Renewable Energy Officer at the African Development Bank, explains, “in the renewable energy sector in Mali, we currently have a penetration rate covering 3% of the demand, which is relatively low. Through this Plan, we aim to achieve a solar penetration rate of 15% by 2030.
Mali is ripe for the steady transition from its fossil fuels-laden past to a cleaner green-energy future for its socio-economic growth according to its investment plan. Like most West African countries, Mali relies heavily on fossil fuels but has significant potential in solar and wind energy.
