Abstract: With the energy transition, marked essentially by the mass integration of energy production based on renewable resources, the missions and challenges of electrical energy distribution networks are evolving. This study is part of this dynamic, its objective is the study of the management of the production and distribution system of electrical energy within the National School of Teachers of Mamou. It emerges from this study that the supply of electrical energy to the National School of Teachers of Mamou is ensured by a hybrid system of three power sources: photovoltaic solar fields, Generator Group and Electricity of Guinea. The current electrical energy requirements of the Mamou NST are 40 kW. The total power of the installed photovoltaic solar fields is 70 kWp; the Generator used has a power of 10 kVA; the site’s Electricity of Guinea network is made up of transformers, cabin substations and protective equipment. The electricity distribution network is characterized by: Four (4) 250 A circuit breakers; a 32 A circuit breaker for the departure of lamps, sockets and fans; a 10 A circuit breaker for the lamps; a 10 A circuit breaker for the fans; a 16 A circuit breaker for the sockets and an 800 A mechanical inverter. The study shows that the power of photovoltaic solar fields is largely sufficient to cover the current electrical energy needs of the National School of Teachers of Mamou.

Abstract: The energy sector in Sahelian countries such as Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger is facing enormous challenges. Indeed, electricity shortages, characterized by recurrent breakdowns of means of production and import dependency due to an unfavorable energy mix, are numerous in these countries. Concerns about the high costs of facilities and operations, as well as environmental pollution, not forgetting to mention the matter of the countries' energy sovereignty, have led to the desire to use reliable, profitable and adapted means of production. The aim of this study is to review the literature on electric power generation systems in the world, in Africa and in Sahelian countries, with an emphasis focus on photovoltaic and thermal solar energy. In addition, it highlights, in views of the problems raised, works that have suggested solutions. To achieve this, scientific articles, theses and other scientific documents dealing with electric power generation systems from 2014 to 2024 have been consulted. This enabled us to get knowledge on the various electric power generation systems, to know their advantages and limitations, and above all the perspectives in terms of electric power generation. Additionally, they provided a source of inspiration for setting up an electric power generation system in line with the realities of the countries of the Alliance of Sahel States (ASS).
