The number of days of sunlight allows the potential of bringing solar power to much of Africa without large scale grid infrastructure. The distribution of solar resources across Africa is fairly uniform, with more than 85% of the continent's landscape receiving a global solar horizontal irradiation at or over 2,000 kWh/(m2year).
About two fifths of the continent are desert, and thus continuously sunny. The combination of all these geographical and climatic factors is the cause of the large solar potential of Africa.
