Issue 458 - 07 Apr 2022 - By Tonderayi Mukeredzi | 1 minute read

South African independent power producer (IPP) Sturdee Energy has begun work on a 3MW solar PV project at Bobonong, in central Botswana. The IPP was awarded the scheme, along with a 1MW project in Shakawe, in February 2020 by Botswana Power Corporation (BPC) under a tender for grid-tied solar projects. The plants have a 25-year power purchase agreement (PPA) and are thought to be the first private sector renewable energy projects in Botswana to supply BPC.
