Building the Path to Lesotho’s First Wind Farm

January 2026 / Hirundo Energy News

The first step is often the hardest—but also the most exciting. At Mohale’s Hoek, work has begun on the path that will make it possible to transport the wind measurement masts for Lesotho’s very first wind farm. This path is more than just a route; it is the foundation of a story of hope, opportunity, and progress.

This initial phase of construction marks the beginning of a journey toward 12 wind turbines that will harness the power of the wind to bring clean energy to our communities. Already, 40 young people from around Mohale’s Hoek, working hand in hand with the four local councils involved in the project, have been employed in this initiative—gaining skills and experience along the way.

Below is a visual update from the site, capturing early progress and the people behind this first step.
