6 FAQs about [Active energy storage Mozambique]

What is Mozambique's new energy grid?

Located in Niassa province, one of Mozambique’s most underserved provinces with an electrification rate of just over 20 per cent, the $36 million project will provide clean energy to 18,000 households and support the creation of local jobs. The project marks a significant milestone as the first IPP grid-scale storage plant in sub-Saharan Africa.

What is Globeleq's first greenfield project in Mozambique?

The US$36 million Cuamba Solar plant is also Globeleq’s first greenfield project in Mozambique and the Group’s first combined solar and storage plant in its operating portfolio.

How much power does Mozambique have?

The country’s biggest power plant, Cahora Bassa hydro plant, has an installed capacity of 2,075 MW. Currently, over 75% of the electricity generated from the hydropower plant is exported to South Africa. The remaining capacity, around 1,300 MW, is utilised to meet local electricity demand in Mozambique.

What is the optimal power system expansion plan for Mozambique?

The optimal power system expansion plan if wind and solar capacity are allowed to triple to reach almost 3 GW by 2032. Currently, the power system of Mozambique is separated into two transmission networks isolated from one another: the Central-Northern and Southern systems. Over 50% of the annual power demand is seen in the Southern system.

How will Mozambique benefit from a more distributed power system?

With this strategy, Mozambique will also avoid locking the systems in for decades to come with large baseload plants, and benefit from a more distributed power system.

How can Mozambique achieve its electrification goal?

The use of proven power generation technologies coupled with a well-structured and realistic data-driven plan will enable Mozambique to reach its electrification goal. To identify the optimal power system for Mozambique, a few key questions must be considered. Should Mozambique cap new renewable energy capacity to 100 MW/year?
