Abstract
In this study, the link between Photovoltaic (PV) installations on employment and education opportunities, in Senegal, is analysed. The Sustainable Livelihood Approach is used to understand the examined situation, holistically. Investments in PV have been shown to have an influence on the economic growth and the labour market. The effect of the solar park Senergy 2, for example, is estimated to have provided 1434 job opportunities per MW capacity. Access to a reliable, clean energy source, influences the education sector and has been shown to bring an indirect economic benefit, by access to knowledge for rural communities.
