28% of Namibia''s generated electricity come from fossil fuels, while 64% are from hydropower, and about 8% come from renewables . Non-electricity off-grid renewable energy projects include the small/ micro wind energy installations used for water pumping, which are very common in Namibia, especially on farms.
According to the REN21-SADC Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Status Report (2018), the challenge in Namibia is to provide electricity access to the 79% of the rural and sparse population that does not have access by establishing feasible and maintainable off-grid solutions.
Namibia''s top energy sources are petroleum, hydropower, imported electricity, and imported coal . The country''s own internal resources supply less than one-third of its needed energy requirements . Namibia has high potential for solar, wind and biomass generation .
Installed generation capacity currently stands at 611 MW, of which 521 MW is available against a peak power demand of 672 MW in 2018. Lack of access to energy remains a critical barrier to poverty alleviation and Namibia’s industrialisation efforts.
