The production of solar PV cells, modules, and other components requires advanced manufacturing processes, skilled labor, and well-developed infrastructure. Unfortunately, many African countries lack the necessary industrial base to support solar PV manufacturing.
African governments should prioritize the deployment of solar PV technologies to meet their domestic energy needs. This will not only improve energy security but also create local demand for solar PV products, helping to stimulate the growth of a domestic solar PV manufacturing industry.
Individually, most African countries lack the financial resources, technological capabilities, and infrastructure needed to develop a competitive solar PV manufacturing sector. Moreover, the global solar PV market is highly concentrated, with China dominating nearly every segment of the value chain.
The NPC for the PV-based solar schemes planned to be founded in Libya, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco were determined to be about US$3.14B, US$16.8B, US$13.9B and US$13.1B, respectively. The COE and unmet electric loads of the examined twelve PVs across the four remaining North African countries are depicted in Fig. 5, Fig. 6.
