6 FAQs about [Namibia Energy Storage Industry Policy Research]
How can Namibia be energy-secure?
The gap is made up by electricity imports. In order to be energy-secure, Namibia needs to be energy-independent, given the risks in power supply within the SADC region. This requires Namibia’s bolstering its own energy generation capacity with the available domestic resources.
How does the government support Namibia's modern energy access goals?
Government supports Namibia’s modern energy access goals through the increased use of economically viable and locally available Renewable Energy resources along with the expansion of the mini-grid roll-out that aligns with the SADC’s mini-grid framework and Action Plan for Namibia.
How can a grid code impact energy storage in Namibia?
Grid Code rules and targeted tariff signals for energy storage solutions can enable the wider adoption of energy storage and ensure it adds value for a number of stakeholders in Namibia’s ESI including both the customer and system operator.
What is Namibia's NIRP?
Namibia’s NIRP will guide future procurement of electricity from Renewable Energy sources. This will create an opportunity for this RE Policy to provide more direction for the Renewable Energy sector and support an enabling environment to take advantage Namibia’s abundant Renewable Energy resources.
Why is electricity Wheeling important in Namibia?
Government recognises the importance of electricity wheeling for the growth of Renewable Energy in Namibia in its further development of the electricity market framework. The Regulator shall consider the development of wheeling regulations that enable Renewable Energy projects (e.g. community solar initiatives).
Does Namibia have a solar thermal technology roadmap?
The Namibian Energy Institute in collaboration with NUST and SOLTRAIN developed a Solar Thermal Technology Roadmap for Namibia, which highlights the potential for solar thermal among various end-use segments as depicted in Figure 7. (NEI, 2015).
