Launched in 2024 by the National Energy Secretariat (SNE), the initiative focuses on installing decentralised solar PV systems in 663 homes and 10 schools across vulnerable communities, targeting areas heavily affected by climate change.
[pdf] When Norway announced its off-grid solar storage initiative in 2022, critics chuckled. “Solar power in Oslo? That’s like opening a sunscreen shop in a cave!” But fast forward to 2025, and this 150MW facility now powers 20% of the city’s public transport during winter darkness [7].
[pdf] Summary: Oslo''s New Energy Storage Demonstration Project is redefining urban renewable energy strategies. Combining cutting-edge battery technology with smart grid integration, this initiative offers scalable solutions for cities transitioning to low-carbon energy systems.
[pdf] Located in the photovoltaic (solar thermal) industrial park of Delingha City, Haixi Prefecture, Qinghai Province, the project combines photovoltaic power generation with solar thermal molten salt energy storage technology, with a total installed capacity of 1 million kilowatts.
[pdf] The Dhaka Electricity Supply Company (DESCO) has floated an expression of interest (EoI) to set up 120 MW on-grid solar power projects under the design-build-finance-operate and maintain model in Dhaka. The last date to submit bids is May 4, 2025. Bids will be opened on the same day.
[pdf] The West Africa Container Terminal (WACT) has signed a solar lease agreement with a pan-African clean energy company to provide at least 1.2GW hours of electricity each year over a 15-year period. The Terminal is located within the Oil and Gas Free Zone at the Onne Port in Nigeria’s Rivers State.
