PLANNING MOZAMBIQUE''S OPTIMAL POWER SYSTEM

To identify the optimal power system for Mozambique, a few key questions must be considered. • Should Mozambique cap new renewable energy capacity to 100 MW/year? • Or should the country add as much renewables as needed to further lower system costs? • How much ﬂexibility must be built into the system?

Mozambique

In Mozambique, around 40% of people have access to electricity, through the grid or mini/off-grid systems. The government has promoted solar PV solutions in rural areas, reporting that 700 schools and 800 other public buildings now have electricity from s

Mozambique

Rural Electrification Project, Cabo Delgado, Mozambique

Mozambican energy company EdM appointed RXPE to improve the reliability and efficiency of its 220 kV substation in Nampula through provision of a dynamic reactive power compensation system. Early investigations by RXHK (then part of RXPE) identified that the power grid at Nampula substation was very weak.

On-Grid, Off-Grid: the Double-Sided Solar Solution for Mozambique

Future tenders are expected to be announced in Q4 of 2023, including the selection of two independent power producers for two 30 MW solar photovoltaic power plants and one 50 MW wind power plant. But Mozambique has an enormous challenge that spreads far beyond where the national grid ends.

Planning Mozambique''s optimal power system expansion

This power plant utilises naturally occurring methane gas from Lake Kivu to generate electricity via Wärtsilä 34SG engines. Total output will be 25 MW. By reducing gas levels in the lake while, at the same time, providing additional power generating capacity, both environmental and economic targets can be met.

6 FAQs about [Mozambique radix power solutions]

What is the optimal power system expansion plan for Mozambique?

The optimal power system expansion plan if wind and solar capacity are allowed to triple to reach almost 3 GW by 2032. Currently, the power system of Mozambique is separated into two transmission networks isolated from one another: the Central-Northern and Southern systems. Over 50% of the annual power demand is seen in the Southern system.

How will Mozambique benefit from a more distributed power system?

With this strategy, Mozambique will also avoid locking the systems in for decades to come with large baseload plants, and benefit from a more distributed power system.

Why is Mozambique focusing on hydropower projects?

Since Mozambique has high hydro power potential, the country is focusing on developing large hydro projects that aim to be operational at the beginning of 2030’s. Hydropower projects play an important role in decarbonizing the power sector in Mozambique.

Why is Mozambique a major energy exporter?

Mozambique is a net exporter of energy to countries in the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) – South Africa being the largest importer. The government view energy exports as a key driver of the Mozambican economy, having passed a new electricity law that simplifies permitting and encourages IPPs activities.

Can Mozambique increase gas-to-power generation?

Going forward, the development of new gas resources by the Mozambican government presents tremendous opportunities to rapidly increase gas-to-power generation in the country. Domestic gas from the Northern coast of Mozambique is expected to be available by 2026.

Will Mozambique-Zambia interconnector help the South African Development Community?

The Southern African Development Community (SADC) member countries are expected to have higher demand for power that could be met with Mozambican exports. The Mozambique-Zambia Interconnector will link the Mozambican and Zambian grids with two 400KV high-voltage alternating current (HVAC) lines at an approximate cost of $313 million.
