In Lesotho, there are ongoing projects to enhance energy access through photovoltaic (PV) energy storage systems:A coalition is backing the installation of 11 solar-battery mini-grids with a combined generation capacity of 1.8 MW, which will benefit rural communities1.These installations will connect to battery storage systems, providing electricity to approximately 7,300 households and small businesses2.The hybrid nature of these projects ensures a 24-hour electricity supply, even during harsh winters3.These initiatives aim to improve energy access and reduce reliance on imported fossil fuels.

The National Policy 2015-2025 guides the sector and envisions the development of the renewable energy sector.The total amount of energy available is 75 MW as against a demand of 165 MW, the shortfall being imported from South Africa and Mozambique.Access is concentrated in urban areas (47%), where the infrastructure for transmission and distribution is considerably well developed, while rural areas represent approximately 10.2% of the grid-served areas.
