Nzema Solar Power Station is a 155-megawatt (208,000
hp) solar power plant located at Aiwiaso Village, Nzema East
District, Western Region, Ghana. The power station will use a
total of 630,000 solar photovoltaic (PV) modules which, when
struck by sunlight, will generate direct current (DC) electricity.
Using inverters, the DC will be converted to alternating current
(AC), which will be fed in the national electricity grid, to
power an estimated 100,000 homes. The project will be
developed on 83 hectares (450 acres).
