Power trader Africa GreenCo is requesting expressions of interest (EoI) to install a 10MW/40MWh battery system to address intermittency in its initial portfolio of projects – including a 25MW solar PV plant the company procured in September 2021 – and to facilitate load-shifting, as well as potentially trading on the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP).
Zambia is facing 21-hour power cuts from 14 September when its hydropower plant on Lake Kariba is set to be turned off due to insufficient water.. Following severe droughts and increased evaporation amid scorching heat, the lake''s live storage – i.e. the water available for power generation – dropped to just 1.1m on 9 September, according to the Zambezi River
The hydroelectric scheme on the Kafue River will eventually add 750 MW of power to Zambia''s national grid. The President of the Republic of Zambia Edgar Chagwa Lungu recently visited the Chinkankata district for the commissioning of the first unit of the Kafue Hydroelectric Power Plant.
A diversified energy mix: The plan promotes a balanced approach, incorporating renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, alongside traditional resources, such as hydropower (focused in the North of Zambia), for a reliable and sustainable power supply. Enhanced energy security: The IRP strengthens energy security through domestic
