Image Source: China Datang Corporation One of China's five large-scale power generation enterprises wants to build three solar energy projects in Zambia over the next few years.
In Zambia, Vitalite offers pay-as-you-go home systems using modern mobile technology to help low-income households. Aurora Power Solutions also operates in the region, focusing on solar power.
According to the MoU, China Datang will invest in and construct 220MW of new energy projects with “high quality and efficiency.” Zambia's President Hakainde Hichilema said the government is working towards attaining a power generation capacity of 10,000MW.
The Zambian solar sector consists of several segments, with most installations using solar photovoltaics (PV) to generate power. These systems are mainly used for electronic devices, lighting in businesses, houses, and communities, as well as solar water pumping, heating, and cleaning.
Zambia has a high potential for solar power and the sector is growing. Right now, Zambia mainly depends on hydropower, but droughts have made this source less dependable. Combined with the increase in electricity demand, a new renewable source like solar power is desirable.
Zambia's President Hakainde Hichilema said the government is working towards attaining a power generation capacity of 10,000MW. The government is seeking urgent interventions to address power shortages that have adversely affected the country's economy this year.
