CI-Energies is seeking expressions of interest from consultants by 30 October to assist with the construction of a floating solar PV project on Lake Kossou in north-central Côte d’Ivoire. The project, with an installed capacity of 10-20MWp, is to be developed as a pilot project by CI-Energies on the reservoir impounded by the Kossou dam on the Bandama River, about 40km north-west of Yamoussoukro. The reservoir was identified in a scoping study by the state power producer as the site for the first in a series of planned utility-scale floating solar projects.
