The new solar infrastructure will provide sustainable electricity to 1 million people. Angola's Ministry of Finance has secured €1.29 billion from Standard Chartered to finance the construction of 48 hybrid PV systems across the Angolan provinces of Moxico, Lunda Norte, Lunda Sul, Bie, and Malanje.
Clean energy firm MCA Group has been tasked with the construction of the projects. An agreement for the provision of $900 million in funding to support the implementation of the Angola Solar Energy Project was reached between Angola's Ministry of Energy and Water and the U.S. Export-Import Bank in June 2023.
A final investment decision for the project was reached in December 2021. Angola started operations at two solar energy facilities – the 188 MW Biopio Solar Plant and the 96 MW Baia Farta Solar Plant – in Benguela province in August 2022.
An agreement for the development of a 150 MW solar plant was signed between Angola's Ministry of Energy and Water and UAE-based renewable energy company Masdar in Dubai last December. The 150 MW project will produce electricity to power 90,000 homes, contributing to job creation, emissions reduction and efforts to increase national electrification.
Angola has set a target of 60% access to electricity by 2025 under the strategic plan 'Visao 2025,' of which solar is poised to play a central role. Supporting electrification as well as diversification, solar projects are being rolled out by the government alongside international partners and project developers.
