Why do we need solar power plants in Cameroon?

The absence of commitment and enthusiasm from the government is weakening the sector potentiality to be developed either by private sector investments and also foreign investors. Solar, wind and thermal energy plants are essential to meet the electrification of Cameroon. 1. Introduction

Are solar energy systems a sustainable solution in Cameroon?

In Cameroon, where energy demands are growing rapidly alongside economic development, solar energy systems offer a sustainable and efficient solution to meet the country’s energy needs.

Why is solar energy a problem in Cameroon?

The solar energy is at pilot stage now in Cameroon. There are several issues that are hindering the process. The Government has not taken necessary steps to enhance the sector. This may be due to the high capital cost of solar technology. There is also lack of sensitization by the government towards the public on the benefit of solar energy.

Does Cameroon have good solar potential?

There is good solar potential in Cameroon (see Fig. 5) but it is not well developed. The major cause of the poor state of solar energy development is the poor commitment and dedication of government in taking important steps to boost the sector. In most part of the country, the mean solar irradiance is approximately 5.8 kWh/m 2 /day . Fig. 5.
