A group of Chinese companies led by China Harbour Engineering Co has won a contract to build a 100 MW solar plant in Botswana, the country’s second utility-scale renewables facility.
The solar plant, valued at US$78.3 million (R1.4 billion), is set to completed by the second quarter of 2026, according to Zhitong Finance. The contract signing took place on Monday in Jwaneng, which is a diamond mining town located 200 kilometers west of the capital, Gaborone.
The project is a key development in Botswana’s renewable energy sector, marking the country’s second utility-scale solar facility. The contract which is valued at $78.3 million includes partnerships with China Water and Electric Development Co. and local investors.
In March, Scatec ASA began construction of a 100-megawatt solar power plant in Botswana’s northeast. The initial 60 megawatts of this project are expected to come online by the end of this year. The Ministry of Minerals and Energy is also working on additional renewable energy projects.
The global commercial and industrial solar energy storage battery market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with demand increasing by over 400% in the past three years.
