The Jwaneng Solar Power Station is a 100 MW (130,000 hp) , under development in . Two companies and one Botswana (IPP) formed a that owns the project. (BPC), the national electricity utility company is the power off-taker, under a 25-year . The World Bank Group has approved plans to develop Botswana’s first utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) with 50MW output and 200MWh storage capacity. The World Bank will support the 4-hour duration BESS via a loan of US$88 million. [pdf]
In July 2021, the Botswana Energy Regulatory Authority (BERA) also approved the project, and issued a generation license. The power station is under development by a consortium comprising Shumba Energy Limited from Botswana and Solarcentury Africa, based in the United Kingdom.
Botswana is home to several power stations, including Morupule Power Stations B (600 MW) and A (132 MW), Orapa Power Station (90 MW), and Phakalane Power Station (1.3 MW).
In a few years Botswana could be generating enough power internally to supply all of its domestic needs General electrification is the main objective of the Government. The feed-in tariffs (FITs) are yet to be developed by the government. The National Development Plan (NDP) 11 places an emphasis on self-sufficiency.
In November 2018, BPC issued a Request for proposals relating to the development, financing, construction, operation and maintenance of 12 solar PV power projects. In a few years Botswana could be generating enough power internally to supply all of its domestic needs General electrification is the main objective of the Government.

Grid energy storage (also called large-scale energy storage) is a collection of methods used for on a large scale within an . Electrical energy is stored during times when electricity is plentiful and inexpensive (especially from sources such as and ) or when demand is low, and later returned to the grid. What is grid-scale battery storage? Battery storage is a technology that enables power system operators and utilities to store energy for later use. A battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical device that charges (or collects energy) from the grid or a power plant and then discharges that energy at a later time [pdf]
Grid energy storage (also called large-scale energy storage) is a collection of methods used for energy storage on a large scale within an electrical power grid.
Grid energy storage is used to shift generation from times of peak load to off-peak hours. Power plants are able to run at their peak efficiency during nights and weekends. Supply-demand leveling strategies may be intended to reduce the cost of supplying peak power or to compensate for the intermittent generation of wind and solar power.
A battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical device that charges (or collects energy) from the grid or a power plant and then discharges that energy at a later time to provide electricity or other grid services when needed.
In an electrical grid without energy storage, generation that relies on energy stored within fuels (coal, biomass, natural gas, nuclear) must be scaled up and down to match the rise and fall of electrical production from intermittent sources (see load following power plant).
Grid-scale storage, particularly batteries, will be essential to manage the impact on the power grid and handle the hourly and seasonal variations in renewable electricity output while keeping grids stable and reliable in the face of growing demand. Grid-scale battery storage needs to grow significantly to get on track with the Net Zero Scenario.
Energy storage is one option to making grids more flexible. An other solution is the use of more dispatchable power plants that can change their output rapidly, for instance peaking power plants to fill in supply gaps.
