Sephu plant will serve as an addition to the 180 kW grid-connected ground-mounted solar photovoltaic power station in Rubesa (near ), which became operational in October 2021. The Sephu plant is currently under construction over an area of 65 acres in Yongtru village, situated in the . Upon its completion, the overall installed capacity of the facility will reach 22.38 megawatts and is expected to be complete by March 2025. It was initially planned a. [pdf]
The commissioning and inauguration of the 180kW grid-tied ground mounted solar photo-voltaic power plant marks the start of Bhutan’s investment in grid-tied solar energy as a viable alternative energy source in the face of soaring domestic demand and climate change.
The solar plant in Rubesa is one such initiative which takes Bhutan a step closer to achieving energy security through a diversified and sustainable energy supply mix. The project particularly demonstrates viability of solar power plants on a utility scale.
One imminent project is the construction of Bhutan’s first mega solar power plant, a 17MW plant in Sephu, Wangdue. Today, all of Bhutan’s electricity generation is from renewables such as hydropower, wind, and solar. However, 78 percent of the country’s energy consumption is supplied by fossil fuels, largely for transportation purposes.
With 464 solar panels, the 180kW plant will produce 263,000 units of energy a year, which is adequate to meet the electricity supply demands for around 90 households. Director of the Department of Renewable Energy (DRE), Phuntsho Namgyal, said that Bhutan was endowed with 12,000 megawatts (MW) of solar power potential.
Like hydropower, sun is a bountiful resource Bhutan can tap into for producing renewable energy in keeping with our carbon neutrality commitments and also for enhancing energy security through diversification of energy sources.

Senelec is dealing with a chronic electricity production gap, which has worsened due to growing demand for electricity. The average demand increase during 2005-2009 is estimated at 7%, representing an electricity consumption of 1.933 in 2005 to an estimated 2.66 TWh in 2009. The company is experiencing declining reliability of aging . Senegal's growth was hindered in 2007 by frequent , which caused a slow. [pdf]
In 2013, the Republic of Senegal adopted the strategic energy plan, which aimed to increase the energy mix dynamic in the country for a five years (2013-2018). The energy mix refers to the development of power generation from coal, gas, hydro, solar and wind. Current percentages of power generation:
Senelec owns 15%, while West African Energy controls the remaining 85%. The project, located near Dakar, will use indigenous gas, potentially reducing Senegal’s power rates. Turbines are supplied by General Electric, while engineering and construction are handled by Calik Enerji. Sendou – 125 MW
Senegal is committed to shifting from a diesel-based power generation to cheaper energy sources. Senegal has thus put an option on the coal technology. The recent bid to build-own and operate a 125 MW coal-fired Sendou power station was awarded to a consortium of companies headed by the Swedish operator Nykomb Synergetics.
Senelec, the sole buyer, signs power purchase contracts with independent power producers (IPPs). The Manantali Dam in Mali generates some of Senegal's electricity needs. Senegal's major source of electricity is diesel. The rest is mostly coal and hydroelectricity.
Electricity generation, mainly on a build-own-operate (BOO) basis, is open to the private sector. Senelec, the sole buyer, signs power purchase contracts with independent power producers (IPPs). The Manantali Dam in Mali generates some of Senegal's electricity needs. Senegal's major source of electricity is diesel.
The IEA’s Energy Policy Review of Senegal 2023, published today, finds that energy is at the heart of Senegal’s 2035 strategy for accelerating sustainable development and economic growth known as the Plan Sénégal Émergent (PSE), or the Emerging Senegal Plan.
