6 FAQs about [Mozambique Economic Development Energy Storage Power Station]

What is Mozambique's energy potential?

The country has one of the largest potentials in Africa, largely thanks to the mighty Zambezi River, which boasts a projected production capacity of 20 GW. More than half of this potential is in Mozambique. Existing power plants such as Hidroeléctrica de Cahora Bassa (HCB) contribute significantly to the country’s energy production.

What is EDM doing in Mozambique?

EDM and Mozambique support the development of renewable energy projects, having launched public tenders for solar and wind projects, the country is also exploring battery storage solutions. The largest power generation plant in the country is the Cahora Bassa hydro dam, operated by the government owned Hidroeléctrica de Cahora Bassa (HCB).

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 can Mozambique achieve its electrification goal?

A power mix that takes advantage of its vast energy resources in a cost-effective way and provides a solid foundation for the long-term development of its power system. 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.

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.

Does Mozambique use natural gas as a transitional fuel?

GAS IN THE ENERGY TRANSITION: With the largest natural gas reserves in sub-Saharan Africa, Mozambique is also focused on utilising clean gas as a transitional fuel for its power generation sector. A giant 2-GW combined-cycle gas turbine power plant is being planned in Beluluane, near Maputo.
