N Djamena Energy Storage Power Station A Game-Changer for Chad s Renewable Future

Discover how this 50 MW project is reshaping energy security in Central Africa and creating opportunities for solar-storage integration.

Why Location Matters for Energy Storage

Strategically positioned 12 km northeast of N'Djamena's city center, the power station sits at the crossroads of:

  • Three major solar farms generating 180 MW peak capacity
  • Chad's national grid interconnection hub
  • Critical flood-free zones identified through geospatial analysis
"Think of it as the beating heart of Chad's energy network - storing solar power by day, powering homes by night," explains Dr. Amina Mahamat, lead engineer at EK SOLAR's African operations.
