Off-grid in Angola

Portugal’s MCA group has switched on two large-scale off-grid solar-plus-storage projects in Angola since December 2025. Carlo Amado, the company’s chief operating officer of energies, spoke to pv magazine about how the projects fit into Angola’s rural electrification program, which aims to build 46 autonomous solar and storage minigrids to provide reliable electricity to 60 communities across six provinces.

Microgrids can have macro impact

Solar microgrids can bring power and prosperity to communities across the Caribbean, according to Kiesha Farnum, head of partnerships and programs at the Caribbean Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (CCREEE). Modeling work on proposed systems examines how microgrids can impact riverine villages, forest settlements, small islands, fishing communities, and other locations lacking grid infrastructure.
