Includes a market overview and trade data. The Guinean government has announced a long-term energy strategy focusing on renewable sources of electricity including solar and hydroelectric as a way to promote environmentally friendly development, to reduce budget reliance on imported fuel, and to take advantage of Guinea’s abundant water resources.
The largest energy sector investment in Guinea is the 450MW Souapiti dam project (valued at USD 2.1 billion), begun in late 2015 with Chinese investment. A Chinese firm likewise completed the 240MW Kaleta Dam (valued at USD 526 million) in May 2015.
Guinea’s hydropower potential is estimated at over 6,000MW, making it a potential exporter of power to neighboring countries. The largest energy sector investment in Guinea is the 450MW Souapiti dam project (valued at USD 2.1 billion), begun in late 2015 with Chinese investment.
Guinea’s energy mix by 2025 will be dominated by hydropower, which would account for over 80 percent of the total installed capacity, should these planned investments be realized. Solar power is also growing in popularity for both corporate and residential use.
