Energy
Utility-scale energy infrastructure for long-term regional growth.
Renewable generation, energy storage and regional interconnection form the foundation of ISAGO’s integrated industrial-development strategy.
Solar PV
A Botswana utility-scale solar development using single-axis tracking is being evaluated alongside industrial power requirements and future regional supply. Resource figures are design assumptions requiring independent yield and technical assessment.
| Development parameter | Value | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Solar capacity | 400–450 MWp | Target |
| Annual solar generation | 800 GWh | Target |
| Solar resource assumption | 2,300 kWh/m²/year | Indicative assumption |
| Sunshine assumption | 3,200 hours/year | Indicative assumption |
Energy storage
A modular battery energy storage configuration is intended to support a more reliable and flexible power platform.
- Grid stability
- Renewable-energy balancing
- Dispatch optimization
- Supply reliability
- Regional power trading
- Peak management
- Industrial power reliability
| Development parameter | Value | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Initial storage power | 100 MW | Target |
| Initial battery storage | 400 MWh | Target |
| Expandable storage | 600–800 MWh | Target |
Regional energy export
Domestic mining, processing and manufacturing demand can complement potential power supply to regional markets, including Namibia. Tariffs below are indicative commercial assumptions used in development scenarios; they are not contracted prices.
| Development parameter | Value | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Potential annual export | 800 GWh | Target |
| Export electricity price | 0.13 US$/kWh | Indicative assumption |
| Base electricity price | 0.10 US$/kWh | Indicative assumption |
