About this project

The project involves the commissioning of a photovoltaic power plant which target capacity is 60 MWAC (88 MWp), divided into 2x30 MWAC phases, which will generate around 135 GWh/year. The plant is being built by SOLEN S.A under an agreement between the Gabonese government and the company for the development of a new photovoltaic power plant in the Nkok zone and a 90 kV HV line to evacuate the electricity generated to the Ntoum 2 converter station. The aim is to reinforce the actions undertaken since the 2000s, aimed at equipping the most remote areas of the country with solar equipment, in order to offset the frequent shortages and reduce the disparities observed with urban areas. Besides emission reductions impacts and fuel/gas cost savings, economic and social benefits to the local population include around 48 jobs created since construction. The sustainable development impacts of the project activity further comprise: - Contribution to increased generation capacity in Gabon, in line with the nationally stated goal of a share of renewable energies in the energy mix of 80% by 2030, and by installing new infrastructures that will make it possible to supply an additional 250 MW before 2025. - Promotion of skills development during construction and operation, The reduction of around 72,210 tCO2e per year and 722,100 tCO2e over the 10 years crediting period

Location

Country only The registry gives the country only, so the project is not drawn on the map

The registry gives Gabon as the location, so this project is not drawn on the map. It is counted in the country totals.

Credit totals and status are as compiled in the Berkeley Voluntary Registry Offsets Database v2026-08 (CC BY 4.0) and change as the registries update. Please check the registry record before you quote a figure.
