Lesotho Government Contribution to this project is estimated at M220 million which will cover the costs of land compensations valued around M57 million, Tax obligations as well as operating costs of Lesotho Electricity Generation Company (LEGCO). The government is implementing 70MW solar electricity generation project at Ramarothole in Mafeteng.
The project will be under the direct supervision of Lesotho Electricity Generation Company (LEGCO). The 70MW Ramarothole solar power project is planned to be implemented and built in two phases: Phase I: 30MWp with construction period of 18 months and Phase II: 40MWp to be completed in 2030.
The government has also engaged China Sinoma International Engineering and TBEA Xinjiang New Energy to construct solar power plant that will produce 70 MW. Lesotho Electricity and Water Authority (LEWA) Lesotho Electricity Company (LEC) Lesotho Highlands Development Authority (LHDA)
