JOHANNESBURG--December 6, 2012--Written by Richard Finlayson, Senior International Editor for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--What is claimed to be the largest photovoltaic solar plant in Africa and the fourth largest in the world is going to be developed by Blue Energy (Alderley Edge, United Kingdom) at Nzema in the West African state of Ghana. The $400 million plant will have a generation capacity of 155 megawatts (MW), which (when it goes into operation towards the end of 2015) will increase the country's power capacity by 6%. Ghana also has a 2020 renewables target, and Nzema will contribute 20%.
