The study, however, pointed out that things are changing now, and the continent is looking ahead for a brighter future. The report further pointed out towards the growing popularity of solar in its  study, which gives an overview of how African countries are faring in their transition to solar power.</p>
<p>In February last year, NTPC was <a href="https://mercomindia.com/ntpc-provide-consultancy-services-solar-projects-in-togo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">awarded</a> the letter of engagement as the project management consultant (PMC) to develop 300 MW of solar power projects in Togo. NTPC was selected to engage in PMC services to develop over 33 MW of solar projects in Dapaong in the Dalwak region and about 250 MW of projects at Mango in the Savanes Region.</p>
<p>Earlier, Togo had <a href="https://mercomindia.com/togo-announces-tender-solar-projects/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">floated</a> a tender for two solar projects with an estimated capacity ranging between 60 MW and 80 MW. The projects were to be developed in the Kara region and Salimdè in the country&#8217;s central region.
