6 FAQs about [Namibia hybrid energy storage systems]

What energy system does Namibia have?

Namibia currently has a small energy system that is dominated by its 347 megawatts (MW) Ruacana hydropower plant. The country is also considering an additional hydro-power plant, the Baynes Hydro-power Project on the Kunene River.

What is Namibia's energy future?

Some of the report’s key findings include, solar and wind with storage make up the largest share of Namibia’s energy future under a least-cost energy investment scenario to 2030 and 2040, cumulatively accounting for 70% and 77% of the country’s installed capacity, respectively.

Will Namibia increase energy supply?

Namibia is at a crucial point in its energy system development and must make difficult decisions over the coming years to increase energy supply as demand could double in the next 20 years, while also managing costs and negative impacts.

Does Namibia have a low-cost energy pathway?

The International Rivers and EarthLife Namibia released a study on 18 July by TMP Public on the least-cost pathway for Namibia’s energy needs.

Does Namibia have a hydro-power plant in the Baynes Mountains?

Chairperson of Earth Life Namibia, Bertchen Kohrs said Earthlife Namibia critically observed the planned hydro-power plant at Epupa in the 1990s. “A similar plant in the Baynes Mountains raises the same environmental and social concerns and Namibia is blessed with renewable energy resources like solar and wind.

Does Namibia need a hydro-power plant?

The country is also considering an additional hydro-power plant, the Baynes Hydro-power Project on the Kunene River. The Kunene River basin is heavily climate-exposed and extreme drought periods have already created energy shortfalls for Namibia because of its overreliance on the Ruacana hydro-power plant.
