CAP-A’s Energy Dashboard

CAP-A, in collaboration with Dalberg Research, has launched the beta version of their Energy Dashboard – a new online interactive energy platform. Using world-class data from, amongst others, the Global Wind Atlas and Global Solar Atlas, the dashboard provides detailed renewable energy data across Africa, offering valuable insights for stakeholders in various sectors to facilitate decision-making and planning for green industry. 

This energy dashboard provides:

1. Annual energy output as opposed to primary data such as windspeed or solar irradiance etc.
2. The energy output is only reflected in areas where it is geophysically possible and economically feasible to install onshore wind and solar PV
3. The data is provided at a 1kmx1km pixel level across the entire continent.
