Kampala energy storage power supply
MITEI"s three-year Future of Energy Storage study explored the role that energy storage can play in fighting climate change and in the global adoption of clean energy grids.
The analysis shows that sustainability is plausible by optimizing the total primary energy supply, electrical power production from PV-solar & hydropower technologies, and switching 90% of passengers of the road category to the Kampala metro. 1. Introduction
Therefore, the sustainable energy portfolio for the Greater Kampala Metropolitan Area relies heavily on hydropower and PV-solar technologies for electrical power production because hydropower & solar energy are abundant in the GKMA, and their presence in the energy mix promotes SDG7.
The GKMA-TIMES model analysis shows that the consumption of fossil fuels in the transportation sector would reduce if management sets up an electrified Kampala metro and switches 90% of the passengers to the railway category.
The metropolitan depends on imported refined petroleum through Mombasa, Kenya. Petroleum demand reduces by 45.21% when 90% of road passengers switch to the passenger railway category. Therefore, the construction of an electrified Kampala metro becomes the central focus for policy changes over the planning period. Figure 7.
