6 FAQs about [Uganda Grid Energy Storage]

How important is grid infrastructure for Uganda's energy transition?

Expansion of grid infrastructure is crucial for supporting Uganda’s energy transition. A recent IEA report on Electricity Grids and Secure Energy Transitions concluded that without sufficient investment, grids could become the “weak link” of the energy transition.

Is Uganda's Electricity grid reliable?

In recent years, Uganda’s electricity grid has had a low reliability compared to other countries in sub-Saharan Africa and the world. *Sudan = 2019 data (2020 data not available).

What is Uganda's main source of energy?

Uganda’s main source of energy is biomass. Regarding electrical power generation, hydropower accounts for about 84% of the total installed capacity of 822 MW. The actual total electricity capacity is 550 MW and the country’s peak demand is about 489 MW. According to the NDP the peak power demand is rising about 22.7% per annum.

Why is grid infrastructure a bottleneck in Uganda?

Grid infrastructure is a bottleneck in Uganda’s existing energy system. Investment in expanding generation infrastructure has not been co-ordinated or linked with spending on transmission and distribution infrastructure. Coupled with a low demand for electricity, some of the country’s generation capacity is underused.

How can Uganda improve its energy system?

Expanding and modernising Uganda’s energy system is at the core of achieving these objectives, whether it be giving electricity to homes, schools and hospitals; supplying burgeoning industries with power and fuel; or enabling the transport of people and goods across the country and beyond.

How does Uganda modernise its energy supply?

Uganda modernises its energy supply while meeting growing demand, pivoting from bioenergy as the primary source of energy supply to low-emissions power inputs in 2050. *Includes solar, wind, geothermal, hydro and nuclear. Note: PJ = petajoules.
