5 FAQs about [French Guiana solar panels industry]

Is a solar park in French Guiana ready for green hydrogen production?

Will French Guiana reach 85% renewables by 2023?

French energy minister Ségolène Royal has signed a decree establishing an energy programme (PPE) for French Guiana, that aims to use solar, biomass and hydro to reach 85% renewables generation by 2023. The PPE for the region in South America was co-developed between France and the territorial community of French Guiana.

How does ceog fit with French Guiana's energy strategy?

The population of French Guiana is very quickly increasing. Guiana has to face a considerable energy deficit, especially in the west where the demographic growth is booming. By providing several MW of reliable and clean energy, CEOG fits with French Guiana’s energy strategy.

How will EDF power French Guiana?

It will be connected to French Guiana’s electricity grid through EDF’s substation in Saint-Laurent-du-Maroni. The facility will provide reliable and clean electricity to power up to 10,000 French Guiana households. It will meet half of the energy demand in Saint-Laurent-du-Maroni and the Mana commune of French Guiana.

How much daylight does French Guiana have?

French Guiana is situated in northern South America, close to the equator. It, therefore, boasts 12 hours of daylight throughout the year, which will allow the CEOG solar-cum-green hydrogen power project to operate consistently as a baseload facility all year round.
