Electricity capacity expansion options for Lesotho – implications

The results underscore the need for investment geared towards local generation particularly in large hydro up to 0.22 GW, PV up to 1.1 GW and pumped storage up to 0.5 GW by 2050, to keep up with future demand and reduce the cost of imported electricity in the country.

Electricity capacity expansion plan for Lesotho

Succinctly, the investigation reveals, inter-alia, that: 1) Lesotho''s energy demand will continue to increase over the modelled period (up to 2050), with the gap between the local generation and demand concomitantly increasing; 2) large hydro generation, if harnessed will guarantee long-term energy security and cheaper energy relative to both

Electricity capacity expansion plan for Lesotho

Importing electricity will be very costly for Lesotho in the long run. • Planning for a secure system results in least cost electricity system for Lesotho. • For high demand, 1.1 GW, 0.2 GW and 0.5 GW of PV, hydro and pumped hydro is optimal.
