  • How does palm oil affect bioenergy production in Indonesia?
  • Similarly, the utilization of palm oil as the raw materials for bioenergy production has led to the expansion of land for palm oil plantations in Indonesia, which has greatly affected the preservation of forests, biodiversity, and the availability of carbon reserves.
  • Does Botswana import crude oil?
  • Botswana is heavily reliant on imports of refined petroleum products, particularly from South Africa as it does not have any proven crude oil reserves or refineries.
  • Can biofuels be produced in Botswana?
  • A feasibility study for production and use of biofuels in Botswana has revealed the potential for liquid biofuels production, mainly biodiesel from Jatropha carcass and ethanol from sweet reed.
  • Is natural gas a good investment in Botswana?
  • Substantial natural gas reserves (coalbed methane) exist in Central and Northeast Botswana. Once fully developed, the natural gas deposits could generate substantial downstream opportunities for new natural gas intensive equipment and services. Botswana Department of Customs and Excise. This is a best prospect industry sector for this country.
  • What is Botswana's Integrated Resource Plan (IRP)?
  • Botswana’s Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) continues to provide a roadmap and guidance to achieve a reliable, safe, and affordable electricity supply with a target of renewable energy contributing 30 percent to the energy mix by 2030 from its current negligible contribution.
  • Where does Botswana get its power?
  • 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.
