Conclusion This study conducted the technical, economic, and emission analyses of a 10.0 MW utility-scale grid-tied solar PV power plant for seven sites in Benin. The study's key findings can be summarised as follows: The average electricity generation from the seven installation sites is about 13.22 GWh/yr.
Based on Benin's estimated grid emission factor and the electricity available for grid export, about 8170 tonnes of CO 2 emissions could be saved every year after installation. Investing in utility-scale solar PV systems can be more economically viable with government support and infrastructure development.
The findings show that incentives and subsidies could lower the LCOE and increase solar PV investment in Benin. Investing in utility-scale PV systems could help Benin increase its electricity access rate and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions for sustainable development.
