By 2007, electricity demand in Namibia, Southern Africa,
outstripped the supply capacity in the region. Namibia relies on
other sources to provide 53 percent of its local electricity needs.
This disparity necessitated either the introduction of new
generation capacity or load management to supply the shortfall in
electricity demand, with a subsequent rise in electricity
costs.
In Electricity Use in Namibia, author Dr. Godwin Norense
Osarumwense Asemota explores load management methodologies vital to
the effective, efficient, and successful operation of any power
utility-in order to reduce electricity demand peaks, lower utility
production cost, reduce consumer cost, match consumer loads with
supply constraints, and improve availability.
Asemota provides the background of the study, discusses the
historical perspective of Namibian Utility, presents a literature
review, details the research methodology, shares the results of the
questionnaire through figures and tables, provides thorough
analyses, and offers a conclusion and recommendations. Electricity
Use in Namibia communicates the steps necessary to strengthen
Namibia's electricity backbone in order to facilitate a stable
future for the country.
