Nkonge Solar Power Station

The Xsabo Nkonge Power Station (Xsabo Nkonge Solarline) is a US$22 million 20 MW/AC solar power plant in Uganda that has been registered by the Electricity Regulatory Authority (ERA) in the national gazette for the implementation process following license issuance on 28 September 2020. It is part of the $200 million planned investment of The Xsabo Group in Uganda for a total capacity of 150 megawatts. When completed, Xsabo Nkonge Solarline is expected to be the largest grid-connected, privately-funded solar power plant not only in Uganda, but also in East and Central Africa, ahead of Soroti SPS (10 MW) and Tororo SPS (10 MW), and just a little bigger than The Xsabo Group‘s own Kabulasoke SPS with the same capacity of 20 MW, thanks to the Horizontal Tracking System that distinguishes Xsabo Nkonge Solarline from the solar project of the same brand in Kabulasoke. Xsabo Lira Solarline (50MW), which is also part of The Xsabo Group, will become the largest solar power plant in Sub-Saharan Africa, outside of South Africa, when its anticipated commissioning takes place on 31 December 2025.
