Cabo Verde has committed to 100% renewable energy by 2050. The infrastructure investment required to get there is being deployed right now.
Cabo Verde's 2022–2026 Strategic Sustainable Development Plan targets 50% renewable energy by 2030, and 100% by 2050. This is not an aspiration. It is a funded programme. What is already happening: → Wind farm on Santiago Island: capacity expanding from 9 MW to 22 MW → Eight new solar power plants under construction, some beginning in 2026 → Rural electrification projects across multiple islands → VAT and import duty exemptions for renewable energy equipment → Subsidised loan
