Total energy supply (TES) includes all the energy produced in or imported to a country, minus that which is exported or stored. It represents all the energy required to supply end users in the country. Some of these energy sources are used directly while most are transformed into fuels or electricity for final consumption.
The main challenges facing the energy sector include the reliance on power imports from South Africa; which is also facing its own power generation problems; lack of clarity in roles for procurement between the Eswatini Energy Regulatory Authority and Eswatini Electricity Company; lack of incentives to improve electricity service performance
KenGen is conducting exploration surveys in Eswatini to establish the country''s geothermal energy potential, underlining the firm''s growing status as the go-to company in unlocking the potential of Africa''s steam power.
