Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive review of renewable energy policies in Zimbabwe by examining ten papers that specifically discuss this topic. The findings of this review emphasise the importance of an enabling environment to support the growth of renewable energy in Zimbabwe's energy mix. Several policy instruments are identified as a key to creating such an environment, but poor administrative and coordination arrangements, limited technical capacity, and insufficient funding hinder their full implementation. Beyond policy instruments, the review highlights the critical role of prevailing administrative and political systems, market conditions, the economic situation, and the business environment in shaping the success of renewable energy deployment in Zimbabwe. Given these challenges, a more comprehensive and integrated approach considering various factors is necessary to support successful renewable energy development in Zimbabwe.
