November Newsletter

Dec 11, 2023

Dear Readers,

We are pleased to share with you the lattest release of our Newsletter, which is devoted to a number of key legislative and regulatory developments over the last few months.

In this new publication, we wanted to continue to inform you about the changes in the legal framework governing the electricity sector, which started since 2021.

In the first article, our editors will outline the key ideas and information contained in decree no. 2023-285 dated 07 February 2023 on decentralised rural electrification (ERD) projects. In the second article, they will outline the procedures for issuing permits for regulated activities in the electricity sector, as set out in decree no. 2023-444 dated 28 February 2023.

On a different note we have taken the advantage of inactment of Decree no. 2023-463 of 6 March 2023 amending Decree no. 71-860 of 28 July 1971 on the conditions governing the entry, residence and establishment of foreign nationals to inform you about the changes to the regulatory framework.

 

We hope that this newsletter will be of interest to you and that you will be happy to read it.

Join us as we explore the intersection of law, energy, and environmental sustainability, gaining valuable perspectives from a seasoned legal mind at the forefront of Senegal’s progressive energy landscape.

How has Senegal’s energy transition policy, initiated in 2010, evolved over the years, and what pivotal role does it play in addressing current energy challenges as discussed at COP 28?

The energy transition policy initiated in 2010 made it possible to increase the contribution of renewable energies in the overall production of electrical energy to 31% of installed electrical capacities, a significant portion of which is solar energy. The scope of the development is considerable to the extent that in 2014, Senegal only had a 2MW mini solar power plant. This development, which contributes to the response to current energy challenges as discussed at COP 28, is perfectly in line with the commitment of 116 countries to triple the capacity of renewable energies in the world.
