Project Brief

The project activity is a Greenfield project, and the purpose of the project activity is to generate clean electricity and contribute to achieve the requirements of the Green Economy Strategy of the host country, “Republic of Namibia”; by harnessing the renewable “Solar Energy” with the help of Solar PV technology for generation of electricity. This project responds to the objectives of “Republic of Namibia” as stated in its INDCs committing the country to increase the share of renewables in electricity production to 70%, as echoed in the National Energy Policy of 2017 in alignment with Vision 2030.

The project activity is a grid connected, small-scale (5 MWac) power generation project developed by Osona Sun Energy (Pty) Ltd at Farm Osona Commonage 65, Portion 82 near Okahandja in the Otjozondjupa Region of Republic of Namibia (hereafter referred as “Namibia”). The project site is approximately 15 km southeast of Okahandja near the Osona Distribution Station.

Additional Information

The project’s annual average 14,188 MWh power generation will result in annual average 9,727 tCO2e of emission reductions and over the 10 years of crediting period the project will achieve 97,272 tCO2e of emission reductions.
