Understanding that affordable and reliable access to electricity was essential to reducing poverty and shifting toward higher rates of productivity and industrialization, the Government of Ethiopia committed to reaching universal energy access by 2025.
Energy is one of the most significant sectors for Ethiopia’s economic growth and development and is expected to increase significantly in the medium run. Ethiopia has abundant renewable energy resources and the potential to generate over 60,000 megawatts (MW) of electric power from hydroelectric, wind, solar, and geothermal sources.
However, the household electrification rate remained stubbornly low, at only 20 percent in 2015. With more than 60 million people without access to electricity, Ethiopia still had the second largest energy access defi-cit in Africa.
Ethiopia currently has an electricity access rate of 45%, 11% of its population already have access through decentralised solutions. Strong government commitment to reach full access before 2030 in the STEPS.
The focus of energy sector support in Ethiopia is aligned with Power Africa 2.0 objectives, which include advancing sustainable development through private sector led partnerships, promoting economic prosperity, and an increased focus on the enabling environment, transmission, and distribution. Technical assistance provided includes:
Ethiopia has the potential to generate over 60,000 megawatts (MW) of electric power from hydroelectric, wind, solar, and geothermal sources. In addition, in 2022 the GOE certified the presence of seven trillion cubic feet of natural gas reserves in the Ogaden Basin.

Les réserves sont estimées à plus de 15 milliards de tonnes, dont 80 % sont des lignites (). La production de charbon a été en 2017 de 2,9 Mt (millions de tonnes), en hausse de 2 % par rapport à 2016 mais inférieure de moitié au pic de 5,7 Mt atteint en 2006. La production provient de 16 mines, toutes à ciel ouvert, la dernière mine souterraine ayant fermé en 2017. Les exploitations se répartissent en trois zones géologiques : la région de ) dans l' où.

The electricity sector in New Zealand uses mainly renewable energy, such as hydropower, geothermal power and increasingly wind energy. As of 2021, the country generated 81.2% of its electricity from renewable sources.
Since the closure of New Zealand’s only oil refinery at Marsden Point, all domestic petroleum needs are served by imports of refined products such as petrol, diesel, and jet fuel. Domestic energy supply is derived from either indigenous production or imported from overseas sources.
Together with the New Zealand Council of Trade Union and FIRST Union we launched a groundbreaking report on November 14th 2022. The report reveals how the country’s largest energy companies (gentailers) have distributed billions in excess dividends to shareholders thereby preventing reinvestment in renewables and keeping power prices high.
Total primary energy supply: The total amount of energy available for use in New Zealand, accounting for domestic production and trade. Total final consumption: Energy consumed by end-users such as factories and businesses. The share of renewables in total primary energy supply fell slightly, down 0.7 percentage points to 42.8 per cent.
In 2023, national self-sufficiency remained unchanged in at 73 per cent. Key contributors to New Zealand’s energy self-sufficiency are coal and oil — Self-sufficiency: The ability of a country to meet its own energy supply needs through domestic production.
Despite abundant natural resources and a relatively small population, New Zealand is a net importer of energy, in the form of petroleum products. The ratio of non-renewable and renewable energy sources was fairly consistent from 1975 to 2008, with about 70 per cent of primary energy supply coming from hydrocarbon fuels.

Solar power in New Zealand is increasing in capacity, in part due to price supports created through the emissions trading scheme. As of the end of April 2024, New Zealand has 420 MW of grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) solar power installed, of which 146 MW (35%) was installed in the last 12 months. In the 12 months to December 2023, 372 gigawatt-hours. . As of the end of December 2023, 56,041 solar power systems had been installed in New Zealand. For new. . In July 2019 Refining NZ announced plans for a 26 MW solar farm at the , but by May 2020 the project was on hold. In February 2020 announced plans for a 300 MW facility in th. . Retail buy-back rates for solar power exported to the grid range from 7 to 17 cents, plus 15% if the system owner is GST-registered. Cost-effectiveness of a residential solar power occurs when system owners aim to us. [pdf]
