As noted by AFSIA Solar, one of the most notable solar-plus-storage developments in Africa is Norway-based independent power producer (IPP) Scatec’s 225MW/1,140MWh Kenhardt project in South Africa. The site started operation in late 2023 (pictured above).
Eskom, the vertically integrated, state-owned power company, generates approximately 95 percent of electricity used in South Africa, as well as a substantial share of the electricity generated on the African continent. The utility ranks in the top 20 utilities worldwide by generation capacity and is the biggest producer of power in Africa.
The production of thermal energy in South Africa is expected to decline from 200.1 TWh in 2023 to 188.0 TWh in 2032.
