By incorporating nuclear, wind, solar, and coal energy, Zambia can reduce its vulnerability to power shortages and ensure a stable, sustainable energy supply. Remember, this may not be a quick fix to what we are going through, but it may work in the now and years to come ahead.
The President stressed that diversifying Zambia’s energy mix, reducing reliance on hydroelectricity, and embracing solar energy are crucial steps to building a resilient energy sector. “We are determined to shift away from dependence on hydroelectric power, which is increasingly susceptible to the effects of drought and climate change.
Politics aside, this is about Zambia. This imbalance of high demand and low supply, coupled with frequent droughts, has resulted in power shortages. We have every right to protest and challenge the current load management issues.
The current energy crisis in Zambia, exacerbated by reliance on hydropower and frequent droughts, necessitates a shift towards a diversified energy portfolio. By incorporating nuclear, wind, solar, and coal energy, Zambia can reduce its vulnerability to power shortages and ensure a stable, sustainable energy supply.
Note that the Stationary Energy Storage Failure Incidents table tracks both utility-scale and C&I system failures. It is instructive to compare the number of failure incidents over time against the deployment of BESS. The graph to the right looks at the failure rate per cumulative deployed capacity, up to 12/31/2023.
The agreements are seen as a critical step in diversifying Zambia’s energy sources and mitigating the impact of climate change-induced energy shortages.
