Burkina Faso has made great progress in the field of renewable energy in recent years, and 2024 is expected to be a watershed year for the nation’s solar energy industry. Burkina Faso is well-positioned to use the power of the sun to boost economic growth, expand access to energy, and lower carbon emissions because of its abundant sunlight . .
The aim is to increase access to clean energy by improving the financial viability of, and promoting large-scale commercial investment in, solar photovoltaic minigrids in Burkina Faso. The project will also support the government’s COVID-19 recovery efforts and strengthen the resilience of vulnerable communities by supporting livelihoods and . .
The Dédougou Solar PV project marks a significant milestone in Burkina Faso’s journey towards sustainable energy. This ambitious project is a key component of the Desert-to-Power Initiative, aiming to transform the Sahel region into a hub of renewable energy..
In a significant step towards enhancing electricity supply and sustainable development, Burkina Faso signs an agreement for a 50 MWp solar power plant in Komsilga. The initiative, led by the Minister of Energy and Energie Plus, aims to fortify renewable energy contributions, fostering economic growth and improved access to electricity. [pdf]

Renewable energy in Greece accounted for 29 percent of its electricity from renewable sources in 2021. By 2030, renewables are expected to have a capacity of 28GW, and exceed 61 percent of Greece's electricity consumption. This is a significant increase from 8% of the country's total energy consumption in 2008. By 2022, Greece occasionally reached 100% renewables for a few hours. The target for 2050 is a capacity of 65GW. Renewable energy in Greece accounted for 29 percent of its electricity from renewable sources in 2021.
