Research show that Botswana is highly dependent on imports to meet its energy demand. Internal electricity generation is not sufficient to meet demand and progress is accelerated to ensure security of power supply through expansion of the country’s thermal power station . Petroleum fuels are also imported in their refined form from South Africa. The challenge with importing petroleum fuels is limited supply routes which had led to periodic shortages in fuel supply. This is exacerbated by inadequate internal strategic storage capacity and the long distances travelled to supply all parts of the country . Policy objectives with regards to energy access are ensuring improved security of supply and reliability of energy supply to all sectors of the economy. Government has set national electricity access target of 82 % by 2016 and 100% by 2030. Currently electrification in urban areas stands at 75 % and 57% in rural areas while national average electrification is 62%.
