Mozambique: Solar, battery energy storage plant
Commercial operations at the 19MWp Cuamba Solar PV and 7MWh battery energy storage plant in Mozambique are officially
Mozambique will require more than $80 billion to implement its long-term energy transition strategy through 2050, as the government expands off-grid electrification efforts to reach millions still without reliable power.
Our solar power plant in Cuamba was inaugurated in September of 2023. It marked another milestone for Globeleq and Mozambique, as it was the first IPP to integrate a utility-scale energy storage system.
Globeleq sees battery storage as a key technology for Mozambique's future. Storage costs are expected to continue decreasing, so those systems will become more competitive and will be able to contribute more.
The initiative will be financed by a $100 million World Bank grant and $31 million from the Mozambique Energy for All Multi-Donor Trust Fund, including contributions from Sweden ($13 million) and Norway ($18 million).
