Renewable Energy Opportunities for Mauritania – Analysis

This new IEA report – the first focusing on Mauritania – explores the potential benefits to Mauritania of developing its renewable energy options and includes an analysis of the water requirements of hydrogen and the potential for expanding potable water availability through seawater desalination.

Mauritania: An oasis of PV

A new study shows that solar may help reduce water pumping costs in a desert oasis of Mauritania by more than 300%, while also considerably reducing water losses. The researchers claim that PV water pumping may also help prevent the desertification of these areas.

Development of Mauritania''s high-quality renewable resources

Deploying solar PV and wind power plants could directly reduce the amount of diesel and heavy fuel oil that needs to be imported to power generators. A switch to renewables would therefore improve energy security and reduce

6 FAQs about [Mauritania solar energy storage system]

What is the land utilisation factor for solar projects in Mauritania?

The land utilisation factor for project develop-ment has been set to 1%, which translates into a drop in development potential to approximately 457.9 GW and 47 GW for solar PV and wind projects. Figure 9. Utility-scale solar PV: Most suitable prospecting areas in Mauritania Source: Base map (OpenStreetMap); suitability scoring and areas (IRENA).

Is Mauritania suitable for solar PV and wind development?

The findings of this study indicate that a significant portion of Mauritania’s land area is highly suitable for solar PV and wind development.

Where in Mauritania is solar power located?

Located in Atar city in the Adrar Plateau of northern-central Mauritania, the site has an average solar radiation or peak sun hours of 5.67 kWh/m2/day.

Can solar energy help Mauritania save water?

Water pumping systems powered by solar energy may help Mauritania reduce water losses across its numerous oases, while also significantly lowering water pumping costs, according to the study Rehabilitation of Mauritanian oasis using an optimal photovoltaic based irrigation system , published in ScienceDirect.

Could renewable generation capacity improve Mauritania's mining operations?

The report’s analysis finds that expanding renewable generation capacity in Mauritania could improve the sustainability of mining operations, which currently represent close to a quarter of the country’s GDP. These operations are energy-intensive, and mines currently rely predominantly on fossil fuels for their electricity supply.

Can Mauritania generate low-cost electricity and hydrogen through electrolysis?

Renewable Energy Opportunities for Mauritania finds that the country could deploy these resources at scale to generate low-cost renewable electricity and hydrogen through electrolysis.
