  • Eswatini Energy System Transformation Overview (ESTO)

    The purpose of the Energy System Transformation Outlook (ESTO) is to document a high level summary of the electricity landscape
    in Eswatini and to present the outcome of a high level overview and assessment that followed a ‘ interview, identify’
    approach.

    The ‘review’ phase focused on a desk top review of a multitude of publicly available energy and power sector publications.

    The ‘interview’ phase focused on further discussions with the key public sector actors (MNRE, ESERA and EEC) to identify potential
    needs, opportunities and gaps, and culminated in the public sector actors formally expressing their key priority needs.

    The ‘identify’ phase focused on defining potential technical assistance and capacity building projects that will strongly support the
    power transition in Eswatini, and that GET transform is well positioned to support It also provides a starting point for further
    engagement with the public sector and other donor agencies.

    The ESTO is not a prescription of what should be done by the country or the public sector actors.
