4 FAQs about [Photovoltaic ESS project financing options in Burundi 2030]
How much solar power is available in Burundi?
Hydropower: 1,700 MW of potential. 300 MW are economically possible (“Burundi” 2022). Solar: Average daily solar insolation is 4–5 kWh/m2/day, indicating strong solar potential for Burundi (“Energy Profile Burundi” n.d.). There is a growing number of households, businesses, schools, and health clinics using distributed, off-grid solar.
Which region of Burundi has a high potential for wind energy harvesting?
Another study found that the Bujumbura region has a high potential for wind energy harvesting (Placide, Lollchund, and Dalso 2021). Geothermal: According to the Burundi Ministry for Energy and Mines, the Rift Valley region of the country is likely to have geothermal potential (Manirakiza 2012).
How much does electricity cost in Burundi?
Average power prices in Burundi are among the most expensive in the world, some sources citing the average tariff at USD 0.31/kWh (“REGIDESO to Nearly Triple Electricity Tariffs” 2017).
Are tariffs a strength or a weakness in Burundi?
Utilization of tariffs is considered a strength; however, tariffs in Burundi are considered high and ineffective. Plans of expansion of hydroelectric supply do not directly acknowledge projected climate change impacts and vulnerability to the power sector.
