The second phase of the Cabeólica project — a pioneer in integrating renewable energy and storage at scale in Cape Verde — aims to replace costly fossil fuel-based thermal generation while strengthening the security and stability of the national power system.
The Santiago Pumped Storage Project, which will be located in Chã Gonçalves, in the municipality of Ribeira Grande de Santiago and will cost around 60 million euros, promises to significantly increase energy storage
The main objectives of the "Hydro pumped-storage projects in Santiago island" project were the identification of hydro pumped-storage projects and the performance of feasibility studies for potential sites.
Cape Verde''''s Special Project Management Unit is inviting bids to design, supply and install four energy storage systems (ESS). The ESS will be located on Fogo island (2.08 MW/2.08 MWh), Santo Antao island (1.4 MW/2MWh), Sao Nicolau island
Their common challenges and energy policies are exemplified with a comprehensive generation and storage expansion planning (GSEP) for the island of São Vicente, Cape Verde.
During the presentation of the project, Cape Verde''''s National Director for Industry, Trade and Energy, Rito Évora, announced that the energy storage centre is scheduled to be operational by 2030, with the aim of

The Santiago Pumped Storage Project, which will be located in Chã Gonçalves, in the municipality of Ribeira Grande de Santiago and will cost around 60 million euros, promises to significantly increase energy storage capacity, thus making it possible to increase the country''s electricity production capacity.
CAPE VERDE ROOFTOP OFF-GRID ENERGY STORAGE POWER Where is the largest power station in Cape Verde? The largest power station in Cape Verde is located in the City of Praiawith an installed capacity of 31 MW.
In the new project, water pumping will make it possible to store renewable energy that would otherwise be wasted and ensure that it has an additional reserve in hydroelectric power.
Welcome to Cape Verde''s energy transformation – where energy storage investment companies are rewriting the rules of sustainable power. With 30% renewable energy targets by 2026 [1] and major projects like the 26MW BESS initiative [1], this isn''t your grandma''s island getaway.
