Cahora Bassa solar farm

Why it matters

• The 2nd-largest solar power plant in Mozambique by capacity (of 23 operating, under-construction and planned solar facilities tracked).
• If completed, it would add 400 MW to Mozambique's solar fleet — equivalent to 359% of today's operating solar capacity.
• Utility-scale solar produces electricity during daylight hours; its value to the grid increasingly depends on storage and transmission connections.
