Yopougon now hosts a new vocational high school dedicated to renewable energy trades, designed to strengthen technical training, support industrialization, and accelerate Côte d’Ivoire’s energy transition.

With the gradual deployment of solar power plants across the country, the demand for qualified technicians is rising. From elevator maintenance to energy efficiency, clean technologies, home automation, and industrial innovations, this school is strategically positioned to train the skilled workforce of tomorrow—a generation capable of mastering new professions, meeting the growing needs of the population, and driving the country’s modernization.

“Dear parents, don’t think that technical education is only for the less gifted. This sector is open to everyone, especially the best, those with practical skills.

Dear students, you play a major role in the country’s future. Seize the opportunities offered to you by President Alassane Ouattara,” said Dr. Beugré Mambé.
