What is the energy sector like in Lesotho?

sformation in LesothoThe energy sector in Lesotho is characterised by an enormous potential of rene able energy resources. Lesotho has the potential to produce up to 6,000 MW from wind and solar, 4,000 MW from pump storage, 400 MW from conventional hydropower, and more than 1,

Is Lesotho a good country for solar energy?

With respect to solar photovoltaic, it is shown that Lesotho has a good potential countrywide, ranging from about 1600 to 1750 kWh/kWp; while concerning wind energy production much more variability appears, the range being from 1000 to about 4000 kWh per nominal kW installed, with higher values expected in the highlands.

How was the photovoltaic power potential map produced for Lesotho?

The photovoltaic power potential map for Lesotho was produced using WRF Sim2 hourly values of normal, direct and diffuse solar radiation, 2 m temperature, 10 m wind and albedo. As for the wind energy assessment, the use of an hourly model output allowed us to take into account diurnal variability of the involved physical quantities.
