Release by Scatec has unveiled plans to add 28.6MW of solar capacity and 19.2MWh of battery energy storage systems to its Cameroon portfolio. Cameroon''s energy industry is heavily reliant on
On March 3, 2023, Liu Hanyuan, deputy to the National People''s Congress, vice chairman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, and chairman of the board of directors of
Cameroon (Fig. 1) is a sub-Saharan African country, located at the Gulf of Guinea between latitude 2° and 13° N and longitude 8° and 16° E [1] has a surface area of 475,440
This thesis addresses the global question of grid-connected utility-scale energy storage for the integration of energy generated from variable sources, in the context energy transition.
Europe and China are leading the installation of new pumped storage capacity – fuelled by the motion of water. Batteries are now being built at grid-scale in countries including
Norway-headquartered renewable energy company Scatec has brought online two solar-plus-storage hybrid resources projects in Cameroon, Africa. The two projects total 36MW of solar PV generation capacity paired

Scatec''s PV and battery energy storage system (BESS) solution, called Release by Scatec, will be installed at sites in Maroua and Guida, in Cameroon''s Grand-North region. The two solar farms have a combined
Overall, a total of 21 sites have been deemed acceptable and the 11 most relevant sites based on the available head (especially those with a head of more than 200 m) are mapped in Fig. 12. The overall pumped-storage potential of Cameroon could therefore be estimated at 34 GWh and depicted as in Fig. 13. Fig. 12.
Mas'ud et al. assessed the solar energy readiness in Cameroon by highlighting the irradiation pattern across the country. Abanda underscored that the mean solar irradiance is roughly 5.8 kWh/m 2 /day in the northern regions, while it's in the range of 4.0–4.9 kWh/m 2 /day in the southern regions of the Country.
However, solar energy is not a panacea for Cameroon’s lack of access to high-quality energy. Solar panel output is highly dependent on the erratic nature of both solar radiation and ambient temperature, which frequently leads to an imbalance between supply and demand.
Keutchafo et al. reviewed issues of geothermal exploration with a focus on existing barriers hindering the geothermal energy development in Cameroon. By appraising geothermal resources and use in Cameroon, Kana et al. identified several potential geothermal sites using thermal methods.
Presently, hydropower is the sole RE source on the grid in the country. Hydropower is an attractive source of power for Cameroon with a gross theoretical capability of 294 TWh per year. The technically exploitable capability is around 115 TWh per year, while the economically exploitable capability is approximately 103 TWh per year.
Large hydropower with an estimated potential of 23 GW makes Cameroon a key player in the energy integration of the sub-region, with in perspective the export of electricity to hydro-poor neighbours such as Chad, Central African Republic and Congo.
