Sustainable Energy Transformation: Cabo Verde Islands' Interconnection Feasibility Study
Key Ideas
  • Pre-feasibility study initiated by TGS for electric interconnection of Cabo Verde Islands, aligning with the nation's Energy Master Plan for renewable energy integration.
  • Analysis to evaluate technical, economic, and environmental feasibility, focusing on optimizing wind, solar, and potentially green hydrogen resources.
  • Efforts supported by Luxembourg's DCE program aiming to increase renewable energy penetration, enhance energy security, and promote economic sustainability in Cabo Verde.
  • Investments worth €246 million from the European Commission to boost green transition and sustainable development in Cabo Verde, highlighting global partnership initiatives.
Energy data and intelligence provider TGS has been tasked with conducting a pre-feasibility study for the electric interconnection of Cabo Verde Islands, in line with the nation's Energy Master Plan targeting 50% renewable energy generation by 2030. The study, to be carried out in collaboration with RTE International and COBA, will assess the feasibility of interconnecting the islands to optimize renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and potentially green hydrogen. This initiative aims to enhance energy efficiency, reduce costs, and decrease reliance on fossil fuels. The project is supported by Luxembourg's DCE program, focusing on increasing renewable energy penetration and promoting economic sustainability. The substantial investments from the European Commission further emphasize the global commitment to green transition, sustainable development, and digital connectivity in Cabo Verde, reflecting a positive outlook towards a sustainable and resilient energy future for the island nation.
