Table 5 according to the solar power generation capacity [33, 39]. Since 2015, the most signi cant investment in solar energy in So- malia has been produced by leading ESPs.
The study revealed that households in the Bamenda Municipality used a combination of different electrical power sources, such as PV only, PV and grid separated with segmented loads, hybrid systems, PV and Grid with the same loads, PV, and Diesel generator, PV, Grid, and Diesel Generator, to meet their electrical energy challenges.
In line with this goal, the study assesses the feasibility of a 211.75 MW solar PV power plant in Yaounde, Cameroon using RETScreen Expert. The simulation showed an annual electricity production
The major energy potentials in Cameroon are as follows: 108 109 3.1 Solar Energy 110 There is good solar potential in Cameroon (see Fig. 5) but it is not well developed. 111 The major cause of the poor state of solar energy development is the poor commitment and 112 dedication of government in taking important steps to boost the sector. In most part of the 113 country, the

Cameroon is blessed with a vast potential of renewable energy resources: solar, biomass, hydropower, wind and geothermal energies. These resources are currently poorly valorized. The country depends mainly on hydropower for its electricity supply and traditional biomass for its energy consumption. This dependency on hydropower causes

The region''s power generation capacity is lower than that any other world region, and capacity growth has stagnated compared with other developing regions. The Cameroon''s case is even more problematic since the sector suffers from many other evils and shortcomings justifying the current and future energy deficit if nothing is done.

The mastery of demand for electricity in Cameroon is one of the concerns of the State, which is part of the development plan for the electricity sector by 2025.
Renewable energy generation are mainly off-grid solar PV and small hydropower, the latter defined officially as less than 10 MW in Cameroon. Installed off-grid solar PV and small hydropower capacities respectively, were 14.19 MW and 0.3 MW 25]. Renewable energy sources are classified in Cameroon as: solar PV, wind, biomass and small hydropower.
Distributed solar photovoltaic is a well-established technology to meet small-scale rural energy needs in an affordable, reliable, and carbon-neutral manner.

From Cameroon''s NDCs, specific emissions reduction measures for the power sector include the increase in energy efficiency and ensuring a 25% share of renewable energy in the total generation mix by 2035. Apart from the planned implementation of energy efficiency measures, the state''s approach to meeting the electricity deficit has
Depending on the extent of demand-side energy efficiency measures, up to 41% of planned installed capacity and 21% of associated financial costs could be avoided in 2045. However, power losses reduction holds the most benefits for the Cameroon generation system.
This projected 5.9 GW capacity savings is more than the total anticipated hydropower capacity in the Energy Sector Development Project (PDSEN) of the Cameroon's Ministry of Energy and Water Resources [ 5 ].
The Cameroon LEAP model The bottom-up modelling methodology was used to developed the Cameroon power generation model in LEAP. The base year choice of 2016 was chosen due to the availability of reliable data, and commencement of most energy sector plans.
On the former, the nation aims to exploit its abundance hydropower potential. Activities towards both targets have already commenced. Cameroon also plans grid interconnection with other countries in line with creating the Central African Power Pool (CAPP) [ 33 ]. However, only national demand and capacity are considered in this study.
Installed capacity under the emission target scenario The introduction of emission reduction targets in Cameroon's power sector leads to mixed results. Introducing an emission target of 50% under the ET1 scenario results in installed capacity of 14.5 GW in 2045, an 8% increase compared to the BAU scenario.
The total dependent installed capacity of Cameroon as of July 2019 is 1541.39 MW [ 21, 25 ]. This composed of: hydropower (61%), natural gas (20%), oil (18%) and renewable energy sources (1%). The state-run utility ENEO owns 65%, which are made up of thirteen grid-connected and twenty-four remote thermal plants.
