Renewables & electricity

In Uganda, we have owned and operated a 10 MWp solar PV power plant in Soroti District since 2016. In addition, we are developing a pipeline of solar PV projects with a combined capacity of 46 MW in Tororo and Iganga Districts. TotalEnergies' 15 MW Tilenga Solar PV Project, which will provide electricity to support the Tilenga oil production facilities, is currently under construction in the industrial area of Kasenyi Village, Buliisa District.

TotalEnergies also holds a 28.3% stake in one of the country’s most significant power assets, the Bujagali Hydropower Plant.

Exploration & Production

In Uganda, alongside CNOOC and UNOC, we have interests in development projects in the Lake Albert basin, namely Blocks EA-1, EA-1A, EA-2 and EA-3.

The Tilenga (TotalEnergies, operator) and Kingfisher (CNOOC, operator) projects were developed at the Ugandan government's request to tap the substantial oil resources in the area.
