As of 2022, Senegal''s installed electricity-generating capacity reached 1,668 megawatts, with an emphasis on renewable sources leading to a shift away from coal. Foreign investment, most notably
The goal is to ensure the availability and the best possible maintenance of Senegal´s power generation infrastructure, incorporating a variety of energy sources including hydrocarbons for
The Senegal Energy Access Scale-Up Project is building and rehabilitating nearly 4,000 kilometers of power lines and will bring electricity to 200,000 households, electrify 600 health clinics
Electricity production The Manantali Dam in Mali generates some of Senegal''s electricity needs. Senegal''s major source of electricity is diesel. The rest is mostly coal and hydroelectricity.
At the end of 2019, ; the electricity access rate was estimated at 76% nationally, 54% in rural areas and 94% in urban areas. However, the cost of electricity generation (US 25¢/kWh) remains high and is a
The projects are part of the $365 million Senegal Power Compact funded by the MCC The upgrades aim to ease grid congestion and support rising electricity demand Senegal has reinforced
Major energy projects in Senegal are pushing the country toward clean power and nationwide electrification.

Senegal''s major source of electricity is diesel. The rest is mostly coal and hydroelectricity. Renewables should make up 30% of the country''s energy mix and the wind farm in Taïba Ndiaye will supply half. The planned energy mix aims to help Senegal move away from oil dependence, although newly discovered gas reserves offshore are expected to be used domestically to repl
The Access Project aims to extend the electrical grid in selected areas in Senegal''s south and center regions that have high economic potential but low connection rates.
