Botswana breaks ground on 500 MW solar-plus-storage project
The Maun solar project will encompass 500 MW of solar tied to 500 MWh of battery storage in northeastern Botswana, making it one of the largest projects of its kind in southern Africa. A 30-year power purchase agreement is in place between project developers Okavango Solar, wholly-owned by Oman's NAQAA Sustainable Energy LLC, and Botswana Power Corporation.
