AAAS energy announced it has entered into a strategic partnership with Botala Energy Ltd to develop a solar project at the Leupane Energy Hub, located near Palapye, Botswana.
The company says grid connection studies conducted on the site in conjunction with Botswana Power Corporation confirm the site has sufficient capacity for up to 700MW to be connected to the grid.
Botala has just completed the public review period of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the proposed Leupane Energy Hub and Industrial Park. The EIA is now with the Department of Environment for final review before award.
The Leupane Energy Hub initiative aligns with both Botala’s and AAAS’ vision of delivering sustainable and affordable energy. It furthermore fosters AAAS’ ambition to provide renewable energy for 7.5 million Africans before the end of 2027.
We are thrilled to work together with Botala and all other stakeholders in Botswana and abroad, to make this development a huge success for Botswana and the whole region.
