How can solar energy be harnessed in Angola?

The most appropriate technology to harness the solar resource in Angola is the production of electricity through photovoltaic systems. This technology currently presents the fastest ºinstallation time (less than 1 year) and lowest maintenance costs.

How much solar energy does Angola have?

SOLAR ENERGY: 100 MW UNTIL 2025 Angola has a high solar resource potential, with an annual average global horizontal radiation between 1.350 and 2.070 kWh/m2/year. Solar energy constitutes the largest and more uniformely distributed renewable resource of the country.

Which solar modules are best for Angola?

The Q.PEAK L-G4.5 solar modules are ideal for Angolan conditions, delivering high efficiencies and power output throughout the day, and thus offering an excellent LCOE – which is crucial to enable MCA to maintain its high build-quality standards and reputation for developing cost-effective solar plants.”

Is electricity a viable alternative to diesel in Angola?

Medium and large scale projects in the Eastern System and in isolated systems - without batteries - present in Angola a levelized cost of electricity inferior to $0,2/kWh, representing therefore an economic alternative to diesel.

What is the scope of our solar project?

Our scope includes: Some of our projects include: Our solar systems are used by prominent companies and organisations such as Government (various ministries), Banks, Oil companies, Factories, Telecom companies, Hotels, Farms, UN organisations, Mines, Schools, Hospitals, and others.
