Contact UsThe commitment to solar energy is evident in the policies and frameworks that support the development of renewable projects. By integrating solar power into the national energy strategy, Botswana aims to foster a more resilient and sustainable energy future.
Role of solar energy in development in Botswana 181 Water Affairs (MMRWA), which is responsible for all energy matters in the country, is actively engaged in assessing the potential of and paving the path for a larger use of solar and other renewable energies.
With over 3,200 hours of sunshine per year, the country boasts an average insolation of 21 Megajoules per square meter on flat surfaces. This exceptional level of solar irradiance positions Botswana among the top countries in the world for solar energy potential, creating a unique opportunity for the nation to harness this renewable resource.
“As we reach another milestone in our renewable energy journey in Botswana, we are now looking forward to starting construction of the largest solar project in the country,” said Scatec CEO Terje Pilskog. The plant will be located near Mmadinare, close to the former mining town of Selebi-Phikwe, 400 kilometres north-east of the capital Gaborone.
Electricity is regulated through the BERA Act of 2016 in conjunction with the Electricity Supply Act and the Botswana Power Corporation Act. And covers generation, transmission, distribution and sale of electricity.
Botswana's main source of electricity is derived from thermal energy, mainly through burning coal, and also through some diesel generators.
