Senegal's Ministry of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty, and Livestock has entered into a $300 million framework partnership with a Gambian-Dubai joint venture to implement solar energy systems across various agricultural sectors. The initiative will operate under a build-operate-transfer model, ensuring eventual ownership transfer to local farmers. It includes training programs, capacity building, and the promotion of bioenergy solutions, with a focus on carbon credit monetization to enhance agricultural insurance and support a national agricultural fund.
