Description: Swaziland’s electricity import tariffs have doubled from 2009 to 2012, with the trend set to continue, resulting in rising end-user tariffs.

Bagasse co-generation from the sugar industry could meet about half the country’s electricity demand sustainably. Falling technology costs have made solar photovoltaic (PV) power increasingly competitive.
