Ministry holds energy efficiency seminar today

A press release from the energy affairs department in the ministry says industry analysis shows that the building sector remains one of the largest users of electricity in Botswana. It says the energy consumption has grown considerably and it is forecast that demand will continue to increase as the population and economy grow.

These development gives rise to concerns over the security of supply and hence the government remains committed to implementing both long and short term programmes to curls the situation, says the press release.
