A solar power plant will soon be built in São Tomé and Principe. The government of this Central African island country has chosen to build the plant south of Santo Amaro, a town located in the north of the island of São Tomé. The project is now subject to a call for tenders by the Santomean Ministry of Infrastructure and Natural Resources.
Furthermore, investing in solar technologies could take inspiration from Greece, where solar accounts for almost a quarter of their electricity generation. Such transitions are crucial to align São Tomé & Príncipe with global trends towards low-carbon futures, benefitting from reduced emissions and enhanced energy security.
São Tomé and Príncipe is mainstreaming climate across several sectors. For instance, central planning and policy tools have been improved in the energy sector to accelerate the country''s transition to renewable energy and energy efficiency solutions.
