Three grid-side energy storage systems in Burundi
📌

What is the primary energy supply in Burundi?

The remainder of the primary energy supply is from oil (“Burundi Energy Profile” ). However, a majority (98%) of the renewable energy supply in Burundi is bioenergy. The remainder of the renewable energy supply is hydroelectric, and solar power (“Burundi Energy Profile” ).

📌

How much solar power is available in Burundi?

Hydropower: 1,700 MW of potential. 300 MW are economically possible (“Burundi” ). Solar: Average daily solar insolation is 4–5 kWh/m2/day, indicating strong solar potential for Burundi (“Energy Profile Burundi” n.d.). There is a growing number of households, businesses, schools, and health clinics using distributed, off-grid solar.

📌

Are tariffs a strength or a weakness in Burundi?

Utilization of tariffs is considered a strength; however, tariffs in Burundi are considered high and ineffective. Plans of expansion of hydroelectric supply do not directly acknowledge projected climate change impacts and vulnerability to the power sector.
