This initiative will bring electricity to 40 localities in south-eastern Mauritania by connecting villages to mini solar farms hybridized with a backup generator.
A solar generator collects energy from sunlight using solar panels, stores it in a battery, and converts it into usable electricity through an inverter. You can then plug in your devices just like you would with a regular power outlet.

We performed a brief techno-economic analysis of alternative generating/storage systems and found that, for the loads common in the Mauritanian MFPs, a photovoltaic/battery system is most economical and that diesel generators tend to increase the levelized cost of.
5 million program will finance Mauritania's first large-scale battery-based electricity storage facility to exploit Mauritania's solar and wind energy resources and ensure a more reliable electricity supply.
