Ghana: Eni to evaluate solar project

Eni Ghana has signed a cooperation agreement with the Savannah Accelerated Development Authority (Sada) for the joint evaluation of renewable energy opportunities, including assessing the technical and economic viability of a 20MW-50MW solar PV plant in the Northern Savannah Ecological Zone (NESZ). Sada is an independent statutory corporation mandated to produce a framework for developing the NESZ. Eni has been active in Ghana since 2009, operating the offshore Cape Three Points development licence and more recently the Cape Three Points Block 4 exploration licence.
