The Seychelles Government is committed to providing adequate, reliable and affordable energy to meet future energy consumption needs and to underpin strong economic growth through consumable energy initiatives. The Seychelles enjoy favourable conditions for renewable energy (RE) resources, such as wind and solar.
It targets an ambitious transformation and diversification of the Seychelles' currently 85 MW diesel-dominated electricity generation capacity (on Mahé, Praslin and La Digue), aiming at replacing diesel generators with domestic and international public and private financing.
Seychelles is entirely dependent on the importation of fossil fuel to meet the nation's energy needs.
The 5MWp Solar Farm was inaugurated on 12th December 2022 by the Vice President of the Republic of Seychelles, H.E. Ahmed Afif and the Deputy Director General of Abu Dhabi Fund for Development, H.E Khalifa Abdulla Al Qubaisi.
A proposal to develop a 100% Renewable Energy Roadmap for Seychelles presented by the Minister of MEECC was adopted and approved by the Cabinet of Ministers in April 2016.
