Zambia''s iconic Victoria Falls roaring with hydropower potential, while solar panels bake under the African sun. But here''s the kicker—Zambia isn''t just playing catch-up.
Can battery storage be used with solar photovoltaics in Zambia? The Zambian regulation foresees customs duty and VAT exemptions for most equipment used in renewable energy or battery
Africa Clean Energy Technical Assistance Facility. (2022). Customs Handbook for Solar PV Products in Zambia. Bloomberg New Energy Finance. (2022, December 6). Lithium-ion Battery Pack Prices Rise for First Time to an Average of $151/kWh.
For German and European service providers active in the energy sector, Zambia presents significant potential for business development. There are clear needs across the solar energy and storage value chain, including pro-ject development and financing, equipment manufacturing, system inte-gration and contracting.
Private companies also trade in electricity in Zambia. The largest of these, Copperbelt Energy Corporation Plc (CEC), buys electricity primarily from ZESCO and sells it to the various mines in the Copperbelt Province. It also operates its own generators, most of which run on fossil fuels.
The manufacturing sector accounts for nearly 8% of the GDP. It has been consistently growing due to sustained investments in the sector and a general improvement in the business environment. The 2020 Labour Force Survey states that the manufacturing sector accounts for 27% of formal employment in Zambia.
Zambia benefits from excellent solar resources, with a specific production output between 1,600 and 1,800 kWh/kWp per year. The regions with the best re-sources are the south-west part of the country as well as the region around Lake Bangweulu, east of Mansa.
In that case, the PV production is used to reduce the electricity bill and/ or the diesel fuel bill. As of 2022, the cost of diesel in Zambia was around USD 1.5/litre (Global Petrol Prices, sd) and the efficiency of a generator varies between 25% and 35% if operated at at least 30% of its capacity (Skyllas-Ka-zacos, 2012).
