Gambia

The Gambia is investing in strategic infrastructure through regional partnerships and renewable energy projects, aiming to improve energy security and connectivity. A notable initiative is the planned 150 MW Soma Solar Power Station - co-financed by the World Bank and European Investment Bank - which is designed to stabilize the national grid and integrate with the West African Power Pool, supporting broader electrification and economic growth goals. Improving transport links and utility services remains important to attract investment and support inclusive development.
