Electricity Demand in Zambia
Zambia’s energy demand is projected to exceed 5.4 GW by 2030 and reach 11 GW by 2050, driven by rapid economic growth and urbanization.
Currently, 84% of Zambia’s electricity is generated from hydropower, making the grid vulnerable to climate change. Diversification into solar, wind, biomass, and geothermal is critical for energy
Current Electricity Generation Mix
- Hydroelectric Power: 3,164 MW (82% of total capacity).
- Thermal (Coal): 330 MW (8%).
- Thermal (Coal): 330 MW (8%).
- Solar: 2% (with significant growth potential).
- Develop solar, wind, biomass, and geothermal plants.
- Target: 110 MW by 2025, 302 MW by 2028.
- Estimated cost: US$1 million per installed MW.
- Harness 302 MW of Renewable Energy
Technological Advancements
- Floating Solar Farms: Deployable on water bodies to save land.
- Virtual Power Plants (VPPs): Aggregate small solar/battery systems to stabilize the grid.
