Many African countries receive on average a very high number of days per year of bright sunlight, especially the dry areas, which include the arid deserts (such as the Sahara) and the semi-desert steppes (such as the Sahel). This gives solar power the potential to bring energy to virtually any location in Africa without the need for expensive large-scale grid-level infrastructural developments. The distribution of solar resources across Africa is fairly uniform, with more than

By converting solar power into electricity, we calculated the annual mean capacity factors (CFs) for solar PV power at these stations with installation configurations similar to recent studies (Li et al., 2020). Three scenarios of different mounting methods for solar PV panels were considered: optimally fixed tilted angle (FIX), one-axis tracking (OAT), and two
Centralized power stations are generally built in the desert, Gobi, grasslands, and other flat open unused land (Fig. 1 a, b, f, e). Most of the centralized power stations have a regular shape, but only a few power stations are in irregular shape due to terrain restrictions or under deployment or for special needs (in a circular shape) (Fig. 1
