In 2023, BPC agreed to procure up to 600 MW of power generation from a yet-to-be-built coal-fired power station. Additionally, Botswana imports the bulk of its power from South African utility Eskom, and the rest from Nampower (Namibia), Zesco (Zambia), and the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP), to make up for any production shortfalls.
It was established in 1970 and is currently the only electricity supplier in the country. BPC represents Botswana in the Southern African Power Pool. Morupule Power Station (coal-fired) in Palapye supplies 80% of domestically generated electricity, however the country is dependent on importing energy from its neighbours.
Revised in April 2025, this map provides a detailed view of the power sector in Botswana. The locations of power generation facilities that are operating, under construction or planned are shown by type – including liquid fuels, gas and liquid fuels, coal, hybrid, hydroelectricity and solar.
Botswana Power Corporation (BPC) is a state-owned entity created by Act of Parliament in 1970. BPC is responsible for generating, transmitting and distributing electricity within the country to areas approved by the Ministry of Minerals, Green Technology and Energy Resources.
Astana railway station is the city's main railway station and serves approximately 7,000 people each day. A new railway station, Nurly Zhol was built during the Expo 2017 event with a customer capacity of 12,000. Tulpar Talgo is a daily express train to Almaty.
The city's transport infrastructure includes the Nursultan Nazarbayev International Airport, a key hub for both domestic and international flights. Astana is also well-connected by two railway stations, Astana-1 and Astana-Nurly Zhol, which provide services to major cities across Kazakhstan and beyond.

China is not just building solar farms; it is constructing energy-generating titans, behemoths of photovoltaic technology that are redefining the limits of renewable power. These projects, measured not in megawatts but in gigawatts, represent more than just a commitment to clean energy.

Provinces like Xinjiang (home to the 5 GW and 3.5 GW facilities), Qinghai (Golmud and Gonghe Talatan parks), and Inner Mongolia (Hobq and Otog parks) are the new epicenters of global solar power. These areas offer two key ingredients for gigawatt-scale development: high solar irradiance and enormous tracts of sparsely populated, undevelopable land.
