Comparative Modeling of Electricity Tariff Schemes in Senegal and Implications for the Energy Transition by 2050

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This study models and compares six electricity tariff schemes in Senegal: Reference, Progressive, Feed-in Tariff (FIT), Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG), Hybrid, and Hybrid 2050, to balance equity, viability, and transition pace. Using a Python pipeline, SENELEC observations (2020 2022) are combined with techno-economic benchmarks from IRENA/IEA and assessed through revenues, total costs, net margin, renewable-energy share, and average cost per kWh. Forward-looking projections assume declining technology costs and the deployment of storage and green hydrogen.
