WHY INVEST IN THE ZIMBABWE POWER SECTOR?

As a developing economy Zimbabwe has a high demand for electricity which has to support the National Development Strategy which seeks to achieve high economic growth. This anticipated high electricity demand can be met through exploitation of its diverse energy resources.

Current Electricity Supply Gap

Zimbabwe has a power supply deficit of about 30%. This is besides the fact that the industry capacity utilisation is currently below 60% and the agriculture sector is consuming only 50% of its peak energy consumption.

Growing Demand Due to Economic Growth

The Government of Zimbabwe’s policies have resulted in significant growth in economic activities in the country. The new demand for electricity from the mining sector alone is in excess of 2000MW by 2025. The country is experiencing an increase in demand from economic recovery across all economic sectors.

High Primary Energy Diversity

Zimbabwe is endowed with natural energy resources for power generation. The country has 26 billion tonnes of coal reserves and an estimated 40 trillion cubic feet of coal bed methane CBM gas reserves. While CBM is yet to be exploited, coal use has been fully exploited for various uses including power generation. The county’s renewable energy potential remains untapped. There is over 3 000MW hydropower potential available on the Zambezi River, shared with Zambia.

High Primary Energy Diversity

Zimbabwe has an abundance of solar energy with an average solar irradiation of 16-20MJ per square meter. Solar energy potential is not fully exploited and the country has a target to develop 1800MW grid-connected solar by 2030.

ZESA Strategic to the Southern African Power Pool

ZESA is a trading member of the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP). Zimbabwe is at the geographical centre of the regional power pool and is inter-connected to all its four neighbours. This position makes ZESA the power transfer corridor from the energy – rich south the north.
