In September 2023, Djibouti inaugurated its first wind farm in the north of the country. Add solar farms, geothermal power and biomass plants, and Djibouti hopes to become the first country on the continent to supply its population with 100% renewable energy. The construction of this project, which. . Djibouti has long relied on trade to supply a significant part of its energy needs due to its lack of hydrocarbons reserves. In recent years it has tapped clean hydropower from neighbouring Ethiopia via interconnected electricity infrastructure. Under the guidance of Energy Minister Yonis Ali Guedi, who has been in office since 2017, the nation is rapidly expanding its solar and wind power initiatives.
