Uganda’s latest push in energy storage isn’t just about batteries bigger than your fridge; it’s about keeping lights on during Netflix binge nights and powering safari lodges without scaring the elephants. With 45% of Ugandans still off-grid [3], this $33 billion global industry could rewrite the. .
Uganda possesses vast renewable energy potential, including over 2000MW of hydropower, abundant solar irradiation, and biomass.1 Despite this, widespread energy poverty persists.1 Traditional biomass, primarily wood fuel, dominates Uganda's energy mix, accounting for an estimated 93% of total. .
A major solar-plus-storage has been approved by the Government of Uganda, with the project set for Kapeeka Sub‑County, Nakaseke District, approximately 62 kilometers northwest of Kampala. The 100 MWp solar photovoltaic (PV) power plant integrated with a 250 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). .
One of the most ambitious steps in this journey is the planned development of a 100 megawatt (MW) solar power plant paired with a 250 megawatt-hour (MWh) battery energy storage system (BESS) in Nakaseke District. The project, led by EA Astrovolt, the East African arm of U.S.-based Energy America. .
The Government of Uganda has officially issued a Gazetted Policy Direction authorizing the development of a 100 MW solar photovoltaic power plant integrated with 250 MWh of battery energy storage (BESS) in Kapeeka Sub-County, Nakaseke District. The project will be delivered by Energy America, with. .
