6 FAQs about [Namibia rebase energy]

How will solar power benefit Namibia?

The generation of solar power will complement Namibia’s available green energy portfolio, such as hydro-electricity, which already constitutes more than two-thirds of our installed power capacity. Electrifying key parts of our economy and of our neighbours will spur unprecedented economic activity and growth for Namibia and Southern Africa.

Can bioenergy be used in Namibia?

Bioenergy from specially cultivated energy crops is out of the question in Namibia due to land competition with food production and water scarcity. The natural potential for hydropower is estimated at 2,250 MW. Of these, 347 MW are already being used from Ruacana hydro-electric power station.

What will NamPower do for Namibia?

NamPower will be able to maintain pace with evolving and increasing electricity needs of the country. The line will be key to unlocking increased access to variable renewable energy (VRE) within Namibia, as well as facilitate regional electricity trading.

Can Namibia become a green energy supplier?

Already, our country is home to the largest desalination plant in Southern Africa, meaning that the conditions for producing abundant clean water in a desert country are conducive. Once Namibia has successfully incubated the green hydrogen economy, it will enable the country to become a supplier of energy, rather than an importer.

Does Namibia need electricity?

Namibia is heavily dependent on imports for its energy supply. All fossil fuels (coal, fuels) must be imported. Despite the small population and the low electrification rate of 56%, only about 40% of the country’s electricity needs can be met from its own generation capacities.

Can Namibia produce green hydrogen?

Namibia would like to position itself internationally as a production location for green hydrogen due to its very good renewable energy potential. Model calculations assume that green hydrogen can be produced for 25 to 33 NAD (ca. 1.50 to 2 Euro) per kilogram in Namibia.
