Botswana has been approved for funding which will go towards its first 50MW utility-scale battery energy storage system. The battery energy storage system will enable Botswana’s first wave of renewable energy generation to be smoothly integrated and managed in the grid. The World Bank has committed.
The BESS will be situated at Selebi Phikwe/Mmadinare and Jwaneng, where the Southern African country’s first large-scale solar PV plants, each with a capacity of 100MW, are planned. The targeted operational date for Selebi Phikwe/Mmadinare is 2025, and for Jwaneng, it is 20 Other projects supported.
