The plant is a 20 MWAC solar photovoltaic project coupled with a 10 MWh lithium-ion battery energy storage system at Dedza, approximately 100 km southeast of Lilongwe.
For instance, due to increased blackouts and inadequate grid electricity in Malawi, most dwellers have resorted to rooftop solar PV whereas at large scale Malawi has recently added 80 MW of solar PV into the national grid [13, 14].
In Malawi, the annual average peak GHI is 1106.45 W/m 2 with average daily energy inflow at 6.76 kWh/m 2 /day. Solar potential peaks in October (1179.75 W/m 2, 8.17 kWh/m 2 /day) and is lowest in June (998.85 W/m 2, 5.61 kWh/m 2 /day). The average annual diffuse fraction is 10.61 %, suggesting low aerosol interference.
InfraCo Africa, JCM Clean Power Development Fund (JCM), and a local developer, Matswani, recently co-developed the 60 MW Salima Solar project. The PV plant is situated 75 km east of Malawi's capital, Lilongwe, and is now delivering to Malawi's national grid. The Golomoti solar plant is another recent addition.
Solar resource assessment The analysis of Malawi's solar energy potential revealed significant seasonal and regional variations in solar irradiance, essential for understanding its suitability for solar energy systems.
The average annual diffuse fraction is 10.61 %, suggesting low aerosol interference. The study showed an average annual solar energy yield of 14.11 TWh and a capacity factor of 21.48 % on each grid in Malawi, with a stable average COV for GHI at 24.84 %.
The agreement was signed under Malawi's Public-Private Partnership framework. The 350 MW plant will be located on the Shire River. The generation facility is composed of two plants — a 309 MW peaking plant and a 41 MW downstream plant. This new plant will help raise Malawi's generation capacity to close to 1 GW.
