FAQS about Swaziland Wind Power Market Energy Storage Project

How is the Swazi government advancing its energy infrastructure?

In collaboration with private entities and foreign aid programs, the Swazi government is taking crucial and necessary steps to advance its energy infrastructure and deliver power to the 17% of the population (more than 200,000 people) living without it.

Why does Eswatini need a wind turbine?

These initiatives showcase the government’s endorsement of investments toward long-term economic growth and providing the impoverished with the resources they need to thrive. While wind energy production in Eswatini is negligible, the country’s mountainous regions hold immense potential for installing wind turbines.

Who is involved in preparing the energy Mas-Terplan in Swaziland?

The working team comprised experts from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Energy, Swaziland Electricity Company, Swaziland Energy Regulatory Authority, the Central Statistical Office and the University of Swaziland. The team received training on energy statistics use in energy planning tools and on preparation of the Energy Mas-terplan.

How can the Swazi government re-electrify emerging economies?

Through hands-on investment and partnerships with private corporations, the Swazi government exemplifies how emerging economies can electrify their populations with cutting-edge renewable energy technology. There is still much work and foreign investment can accelerate the process.

How can the Eswatini energy system be used to inform policy?

The Eswatini energy system is modelled for analysing energy technology choices. In view of the close correlation between energy sector policy and technology choices, the model consid-ers how the energy system can be used to inform policy.

Does Eswatini need a new energy?

At the same time, the en-ergy supply structure in Eswatini needs to expand; oil imports are expected to grow by 30 % to 60 % within the planning ho-rizon (depending on the scenarios), while electricity production needs to grow by 90 % to 180 %.
