6 FAQs about [Angola solar steam generator]

What is the Angola solar project?

The Angola Solar Project creates new opportunities for Angolan communities that will no longer be forced to rely on and pay for gasoline or diesel generators. Each one of the five projects that comprises the Angola Solar Project will supply the needs of 500,000 Angolan homes, mainly in rural areas.

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.

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.

Who backed Sun Africa's 370 MW solar PV project in Angola?

Sun Africa was awarded the prestigious "ECA/DFI-backed deal of the year" by "TXF Perfect 10" for Sun Africa's 370 MW solar PV project in Angola. Sun Africa initiated this project, developed it, and arranged long-term financing. At 188.88 MWdc, the Biopio site in Benguela is the largest single solar PV project in Sub-Saharan Africa.

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.

Can solar energy be used in steam generation?

At present, solar energy has been widely used in photovoltaic power generation and solar water heaters . The steam generation system that directly uses solar energy is expected to meet the needs of energy, environment and freshwater at the same time.
