Technical FAQs 4

Will Zambia invest in off-grid solar energy?

In collaboration with the World Bank, the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), the Africa Minigrid Development Association (AMDA), and other partners, the Government of Zambia is redoubling its efforts to invest in off-grid solar energy throughout the country to connect all Zambians.

Where do Zambians get electricity?

Today, the private large-scale copper mines are still the biggest consumers of electricity. Zambia has two main sources of electricity: the hydroelectric power plants at the Kafue Gorge and the Kariba Dam (Kariba North and Kariba North Bank Extension).

What is Zambia's power generating capacity?

Zambia's power generating capacity has improved to 1,901MW at peak hour, as stated by Minister of Energy Honorable David Mabumba. Despite facing power deficits in 2015 and 2016, Zambia's power generating capacity has improved significantly.

How does the World Bank support Zambia's Electricity access initiatives?

The World Bank is supporting Zambia's electricity access initiatives, including the development of mini-grids, through projects like the Electricity Services Access Project (ESAP) and the Zambia-Tanzania Interconnector Project (ZTIP), aiming to expand access to affordable and sustainable energy.
