Govt expects 300MW from Morupule B by July

When fully operational, the multi-billion power station will comprise four units each feeding a gross 150MW into the national grid and effectively ushering Botswana into an era of electricity self-sufficiency.

Yesterday, the ministry's permanent secretary, Boikobo Paya said commissioning and testing activities were continuing on the first two units of the power station, with the expectation that these will feed into the national grid by end of June or early July.
