Ghana’s National Clean Energy Programme (NCEP) has launched a $200 million initiative to install 4,000 rooftop solar systems on commercial and industrial (C&I) buildings nationwide. Partnering with Switzerland’s KliK Foundation, the project will add around 137 MW of distributed capacity, doubling Ghana’s current rooftop solar base. It is also West Africa’s first clean energy venture under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, allowing Ghana to trade carbon credits: known as Internationally Transferable Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs), in exchange for climate finance and technical expertise.
