Since 2020, Faso Energy is Burkina Faso's first photovoltaic solar panel manufacturing plant. Location: Kossodo industrial zone. Investment: $5.3 million. Production capacity: 60 to 100 panels per day. Unit capacity: 260 to 330 watts, representing a production capacity of 80 to 120 MW per year. [pdf]
As of 2025, this $180 million project stores enough electricity to power 200,000 homes during peak demand, addressing what locals jokingly call "the 5pm scramble" when businesses and households simultaneously switch on lights and appliances [1]. Who's Reading This? (And Why They Can't Look Away) [pdf]
The project, already approved by the Council of Ministers on 9 February 2024, chaired by Head of State Ibrahim Traoré, involves the construction of a 25 MWp solar power plant on the site of Donsin airport, located in the council of Loumbila in central Burkina Faso. [pdf]
The International Finance Corporation (IFC) has signed an agreement with Burkina Faso’s Ministry of Energy to assess how private investment in energy storage can contribute to higher levels of solar power production while enhancing grid stability and dispatch issues. [pdf]
The minimum speed of the flywheel is typically half its full speed, the storage energy is be given by ½ (12-0.52) Ifwf2 where If is the rotor moment of inertia in kgm2 and the wf maximum rotational speed in rad/s. [pdf]
