| Description : |
Study of sao Tome's Production Transport Distribution master plan by 2040 with strong integration of variable renewable energies. The project consists of an immediate study of the integration of solar production capacity on the island of Sao Tome, and then the study of the complete master plan. The master plan includes the analysis of the existing situation, the demand forecast (including scenarios of electric vehicles high penetration), the production options analysis (solar, hydro, thermal) in order to bring Sao Tome to an INR penetration rate of 50 to 90%, the study of the optimal transport and distribution plan in order to determine the schedule of works to be built, economic and financial studies related to the investment plan and finally, social and environmental analysis. An important training part is included with 3 training sessions. |
