UK company to build a solar power plant in Ghana
A British company is about to start building the biggest solar powered electricity generating plant in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Blue Energy says its facility, featuring thousands of photo voltaic panels, will provide 6% of the country's power needs after it is built in two years.
The $400m plant will harness the power of the sun to produce electricity, that will be fed into a transmission line that links to Ivory Coast, Togo, Benin and Nigeria.
Christopher Dean, the chief executive of Blue Energy, has been telling the BBC's Russell Padmore more about the project.
Having clean energy will benefit Nigeria and the world. With this plant electrical bills in Nigeria will become lower as well.
