Namibia's state-owned power utility NamPower on Monday said it had signed a contract with two Chinese firms to start building the country's largest solar power plant.
Due to the constantly high irradiation, PV systems in Namibia generate twice as much electricity as comparable systems in Germany on an annual average. A daily yield of up to >5.6 kWh can be expected per kWp of installed PV capacity. In comparison, natural conditions for wind power are limited in the region.
Traditionally, the Namibian electricity market has been dominated by the state-owned utility Namibia Power Corporation (Pty) Ltd., or NamPower for short. In the Namibian electricity market, NamPower was responsible for generation, transmission, distri-bution and the trading of electricity as well as supplying the end customer.
It will be the largest solar park in the nation once it is operational. Rosh Pinah is a mining town in the southern part of the country. “The site lies near the existing Namibian power grid and will thus avoid additional investment costs for new transmission or other enabling infrastructure,” the company explained.
