Botswana renewables policy

Botswana is shifting its policies to make investment in solar and other renewables more appealing, by involving the private sector in building new capacity. Botswana committed to having renewable energy make up at least 30 per cent of its energy mix by 2030, and 50 per cent by 2036.
Solar capacity has remained limited but could also grow significantly over the coming years. Botswana’s resource plan of 2020 provides for more than 600 MW of solar and coal-fired power by 2026 and led to the invitation of bids from independent power producers (IPP) last year to build two solar PV plants of 100 MW each.

Government initiatives and incentives were crucial in advancing the solar business. The National Renewable Energy Policy of the Botswana government has set high goals for the production of renewable energy, with solar energy accounting for a sizable portion of those goals. Both domestic and foreign investors have been drawn to the solar industry by favorable legislative frameworks, such as expedited approval procedures and power purchase agreements.

The Future of Solar Energy considers only the two widely recognized classes of technologies for converting solar energy into electricity — photovoltaics (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP), sometimes called solar thermal) — in their current and plausible future forms.

We concentrate on the use of grid-connected solar-powered generators to replace conventional sources of electricity. For the more than one billion people in the developing world who lack access to a reliable electric grid, the cost of small-scale PV generation is often outweighed by the very high value of access to electricity for lighting and charging mobile telephone and radio batteries. In addition, in some developing nations it may be economic to use solar generation to reduce reliance on imported oil, particularly if that oil must be moved by truck to remote generator sites.
Now, with solar photovoltaic technology becoming more and more affordable, scalable and accessible, that dream is getting closer to reality. This online course looks at solar PV in depth, examining its potential for today and the near future, exploring the technical challenges, and assessing the commercial opportunities. It offers you an unparalleled insight into the global solar power market, and will give you the knowledge and practical details to shape and lead the future of solar energy.

The presenter had a very good l knowledge of the solar business in India as well as of Solar Technology so I got some very good ideas that can also apply to my market. Understanding the solar system especially the DC part as well as the whole planing and feasibility process. Coming from an Ac background and working with some solar technologies from time to time I realized that there was so much I had been missing. I am now more confident to tackle the solar market. They helped consolidate the lectures on design as well as appreciate practical aspects of wiring as well as mechanical installation. lST very well structured and comprehensive programme. Excellent investment for anyone wanting to venture into Solar business.
