6 FAQs about [Energy storage in cape verde colombia]
When will Cape Verde's energy storage centre be operational?
During the presentation of the project, Cape Verde's National Director for Industry, Trade and Energy, Rito Évora, announced that the energy storage centre is scheduled to be operational by 2030, with the aim of injecting 7% of renewable energy into the national public grid and 18% into that of the island of Santiago.
Does Cape Verde have a wave energy potential?
In the case of Cape Verde, there is one study evaluating the wave energy potential which highlights the resource available, particularly for the northern islands, such as São Vicente . Unfortunately, the study identifies the wave resource to match that of the wind.
Is Cape Verde a developing state?
The archipelago of Cape Verde is a developing state in West Africa with extreme external energy dependency on refined oil imports despite their available solar and wind resources. Aligned with the global energy transition, the local government established goals in 2011 aiming at 50 and 100% RES.
Which Island in Cape Verde is a study case?
We have selected the island of Santiago in Cape Verde as the study case given the available Open Access dataset , , and the current goals of the local government of reaching 100% RES-based system by 2050, the ongoing direct and indirect electrification of road and maritime transport via EVs and hydrogen vessels, respectively , .
Does seasonality characterize the renewable resource of Cape Verde?
All the analysed scenarios until this point rely fundamentally on HPS to deal with the seasonality characterizing the renewable resource of Cape Verde. As aforementioned, the sizing limit has been established based on current estimates of the total resource of the island.
Why is Cape Verde's energy grid falling out of scope?
Nevertheless, we discarded this due to the fact that the grid in Cape Verde is currently in expansion and this process is expected to continue during the foreseeable future following criterias related to energy access and political will, rather than techno-economical feasibility. Thus, falling out of scope.
