Get StartedIn 2022 the Eswatini Government has brought online a 10MW solar plant and will be awarding a solar generation license for the 50 MW to an IPP by late 2023. The government has scrapped the establishment of a 200 MW anthracite coal power plant to be setup at Lubhuku and decided to export the said coal .
The rest of the electricity required is imported from South Africa (Eskom) and occasionally Mozambique (EDM), particularly when issues emerge relating to Eskom’s supply. In 2022 the Eswatini Government has brought online a 10MW solar plant and will be awarding a solar generation license for the 50 MW to an IPP by late 2023.
The changes are driven by Eswatini’s desire to improve energy security, access to reliable, adequate, and affordable electricity, and the mitigation of potential detrimental impacts on the environment because of the growing energy demand.
The overall electricity access rate in Eswatini is estimated by Power Africa at 83 percent in rural areas and 95 percent in urban areas. GKoE has taken actions to encourage energy battery storage, including offering an SEZ to a company seeking to build a vanadium-flow battery farm funded in part by the Export-Import Bank of the United States.
The Eswatini Energy Regulatory Authority (ESERA) which regulates the sector (Electricity and Petroleum ) using various instruments guiding the application of licenses and has in the past engaged with the Southern African Trade and Investment Hub on crafting the independent power-producers policy.
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. Large-scale battery storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability goals and federal investment tax credits that reduce total system costs by 30-35%. Europe follows with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets are adopting commercial storage for peak shaving and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 3-6 years. Modern industrial installations now feature integrated systems with 50kWh to multi-megawatt capacity at costs below $500/kWh for complete energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar energy storage battery performance while reducing costs for commercial applications. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 50% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,000/kW to $550/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow industrial systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing business savings by 40% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for commercial storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $450/kWh for incremental storage. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial projects typically achieving payback in 4-7 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (50-100kWh) starting at $25,000 and premium systems (200-500kWh) from $100,000, with flexible financing options available for businesses.
