Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, August 7th, 2025 – IFC and the Government of Côte d'Ivoire today announced Infinity Power Holding as the winning bidder to design, finance, build, and operate two grid-connected solar PV plants in Côte d'Ivoire.
The solar power plant is then expected to be the largest in West Africa. The further expansion of solar energy in Côte d'Ivoire will primarily be realised by private investors. The successful project in Boundiali demonstrates to them that large solar projects are technically and financially feasible in similar countries.
In Boundiali in the north of Côte d'Ivoire, the country's first solar power plant has now been inaugurated by Ivorian Prime Minister Beugré Mambé and German Parliamentary State Secretary Bärbel Kofler. The power plant has already been providing up to 37 megawatts of power since June 2023.
The clean electricity generated in this way can supply 35,000 households, benefiting around 150,000 people. The new plant will save 35,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions every year - an important contribution to climate protection. The solar power plant is regarded as a model project for the expansion of solar energy in Côte d'Ivoire.
