RESOURCE RECOVERY SOLUTIONS
Resource energy Namibia
Namibia has considerable solar, biomass, hydropower and wind energy resources; while the total installed renewable energy capacity was 431MW in 2018, the total opportunity is many times greater. [pdf]FAQS about Resource energy Namibia
Are there energy resources in Namibia?
Geological data suggests that there are considerable oil and gas reserves in the Walvis, Luderitz and Orange River offshore basins. Namibia has considerable solar, biomass, hydropower and wind energy resources; while the total installed renewable energy capacity was 431MW in 2018, the total opportunity is many times greater.
Where does Namibia's electricity come from?
The imported electricity is provided by the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) primarily from South Africa. Looking at the energy sector more broadly, the total primary energy supply (TPES) in Namibia in 2017 was 20,350 GWh. 15,350 GWh of this TPES came from crude oil, which was all imported into the country.
What is Namibia's energy sector goal?
The Government’s energy sector goal, according to Namibia’s 5th National Development Plan, is to have a sustainable mix of locally generated capacity of 755 MW by 2022 to support households and industry needs, reduce reliance on imports, and increase the national electricity access rate from 49% in 2018 to 67.5% by 2023.
Which areas in Namibia have a good wind energy potential?
Other areas with excellent wind energy potential are the Lüderitz and Hantiesbay areas. Even though there is potential for wind energy growth in Namibia, there is still the concern of wind fluctuations, which may disrupt electricity generation.
What are the different types of energy transformation in Namibia?
One of the most important types of transformation for the energy system is the refining of crude oil into oil products, such as the fuels that power automobiles, ships and planes. No data for Namibia for 2022. Another important form of transformation is the generation of electricity.
How much CO2 does Namibia emit a year?
According to energy statistics the total CO2 emissions from Namibia’s energy use were 2800 ktCO2 in 2011 (Rämä et al., 2013). The amount of CO2 emissions from the energy sector has been increasing by approximately 4 % per year, on a world scale.
