EDM and Mozambique support the development of renewable energy projects, having launched public tenders for solar and wind projects, the country is also exploring battery storage solutions. The largest power generation plant in the country is the Cahora Bassa hydro dam, operated by the government owned Hidroeléctrica de Cahora Bassa (HCB).
Regardless of the power system expansion strategy selected by Mozambique, there is a critical need to strengthen Mozambique''s power transmission capabilities if the country is to achieve its electricity generation objectives.
In Mozambique, the production, storage, transportation, distribution, sale, import and export of electricity are all regulated activities. It is early to say what impact the New Electricity Law will have on the power sector of Mozambique. The update to the previous 1997 legislation has some immediate welcome effects, such as updating terms

To identify the optimal power system for Mozambique, a few key questions must be considered. • Should Mozambique cap new renewable energy capacity to 100 MW/year? • Or should the country add as much renewables as needed to further lower system costs? • How much flexibility must be built into the system?
Mozambican regulator Autoridade Reguladora de Energia (Arene) has issued a request for proposals (RfP) for independent power producers (IPPs) to develop and install solar PV and battery energy storage
Revised in September 2020, this map provides a detailed overview of the power sector in Mozambique. The locations of power generation facilities that are operating, under construction or planned are shown by type – including liquid fuels, natural gas, coal, hydroelectricity, solar (PV) and biomass. Generation sites are marked with different sized
The storage as a service (STaaS) market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 32.93% over the forecast period to reach a market size of US$62.779 billion by 2029 from a valuation of US$8.558 billion in 2022. "Storage as a service" (STaaS) refers to the provision of a remote storage facility and structure by an external party to companies.
Equipped with a battery storage system, the facility is the result of a public-private partnership (PPP) between the State of Mozambique and the British company Globeleq. The President of the Republic of Mozambique, Filipe Nyusi, visited the province of Niassa a few days ago to inaugurate the Cuamba photovoltaic solar power plant.

The optimal power system expansion plan if wind and solar capacity are allowed to triple to reach almost 3 GW by 2032. Currently, the power system of Mozambique is separated into two transmission networks isolated from one another: the Central-Northern and Southern systems. Over 50% of the annual power demand is seen in the Southern system.
With this strategy, Mozambique will also avoid locking the systems in for decades to come with large baseload plants, and benefit from a more distributed power system.
EDM and Mozambique support the development of renewable energy projects, having launched public tenders for solar and wind projects, the country is also exploring battery storage solutions. The largest power generation plant in the country is the Cahora Bassa hydro dam, operated by the government owned Hidroeléctrica de Cahora Bassa (HCB).
Mozambique is a net exporter of energy to countries in the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) – South Africa being the largest importer. The government view energy exports as a key driver of the Mozambican economy, having passed a new electricity law that simplifies permitting and encourages IPPs activities.
The study covers two possible scenarios, low renewable and high renewable scenarios, that would enable the country to meet the growing electricity demand and compares them to identify the best pathway to develop Mozambique’s power system from 2022 to 2032.
The country’s biggest power plant, Cahora Bassa hydro plant, has an installed capacity of 2,075 MW. Currently, over 75% of the electricity generated from the hydropower plant is exported to South Africa. The remaining capacity, around 1,300 MW, is utilised to meet local electricity demand in Mozambique.
The European energy storage market is booming with Germany leading residential adoption (+58% YoY) thanks to €500/kWh subsidies. Italy's new tax credits drive 5.2GWh commercial deployments, while UK grid-scale projects exceed 8GWh with 2-hour duration systems. Key selection criteria: German-certified safety (VDE-AR-E 2510), 10+ year warranties, and VPP readiness. Top-performing products include Sonnen's hybrid inverters (98% efficiency) and BYD's Blade Battery (12,000 cycles @80% DoD). For snowy regions like Scandinavia, consider Huawei's -30°C compatible systems. France mandates carbon footprint declarations - Sungrow's ISO-14067 certified solutions gain preference.
For European homeowners, 5-10kWh systems with 3-phase compatibility are ideal. Top picks: 1) Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5kWh, 97% round-trip efficiency) for smart home integration; 2) LG Chem RESU Prime for compact urban installations; 3) SMA Sunny Boy Storage for retrofit projects. Critical features: EU-made battery cells (exempt from CBAM tariffs), dynamic tariff optimization (like Octopus Energy integration), and fire-safe LiFePO4 chemistry. Southern Europe demands 85%+ depth of discharge capability, while Nordic markets require -25°C operation. Always verify CEI 0-21 compliance for Italian grid connection and EnWG certification for German feed-in.
