The African Development Bank and the African Legal Support Facility strengthen Sahel Solar projects
The workshop followed recommendations issued by African energy ministers at the 5th Desert to Power Ministerial Meeting, calling for the dissemination and application of the Joint IPP Protocol across member countries. The objective is to support the development of competitive and bankable solar projects under the Desert to Power Initiative.
The training aimed to strengthen participants’ understanding and practical use of the Joint IPP Protocol toolkit. Sessions focused on contract models, risk management approaches, and the effective application of standardised documentation to accelerate project preparation and negotiations.
