If you have land and want a solar plant selling to STEG, AIUS takes the project from site selection through to the day the meter starts turning.
Under the authorisation regime, established by Law 2015-12 of 11 May 2015 and Decree 1123 of 24 August 2016, with tariffs set by the ministerial order of 9 October 2024, a private producer can build a plant and sell its entire output to STEG at a guaranteed tariff. The obstacle is rarely the money. It is the file.
Phase 1 – Development and authorisation
AIUS prepares and carries the complete submission to the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Energy:
- Site selection and technical validation
- Topographic delimitation and site layout
- Preliminary electrical studies, AC and DC
- Preliminary environmental and safety impact study
- Non-objection opinion from the Ministry of Agriculture
- STEG preliminary connection study and connection agreement
- Techno-economic feasibility study and business plan
- Local industrial integration rate, evidenced
- Detailed construction schedule
- The complete submission file, ready to lodge
Phase 2 – Financing and construction
- Financial structuring and support in obtaining finance
- SPV formation and JORT publication
- EPC tendering, selection and contract negotiation
- Equipment procurement support, including the customs advantage file
- Construction supervision and quality control
- Testing, commissioning and STEG acceptance
What you carry and what we carry
The submission bond, the STEG study fee and the topographic survey are direct costs and remain yours. Everything else in the file is ours. We work to an obligation of result on the authorisation.
Our own plant
AIUS developed Solar One at Meknasy, a 2 MW plant, on its own account. We have been through this process as the project owner, not only as the adviser.
