Solar Country Notes

Côte d'Ivoire
There is a plentiful supply of insolation in Côte d'Ivoire, with the total estimated at between 1 500 and 1 800 kWh/m2/yr. The Government, the private sector and some non-governmental charitable organisations have been active in promoting the exploitation and use of solar energy. The applications foreseen include pumping water in villages, hospital refrigeration units in rural areas, the use of solar thermal energy to dry feeds, etc.
