How to reduce energy consumption in Rwanda?

Derive Energy Engel curves of electricity, charcoal, biomass, and others in Rwanda. Find significant gaps in energy consumption between rural and urban households. Decarbonize energy sector with affordable energy sources may reduce the biomass use.

How many rural people have access to electricity in Rwanda?

Recent evidence from data collected in 2016 in Rwanda indicate that only about 12 percent of rural population have access to electricity (Ministry of Infrastructure, 2018). The low penetration of clean energy in Africa and Rwanda for that matter is very worrying, as this implies difficulties in achieving the UN SDGs.

Which energy sources are used in Rwanda?

In Rwanda, which is endowed with a variety of clean energy sources (i.e. hydroelectric, solar power, biogas and geothermal), around 85 percent of households rely on traditional biomass for cooking and heating needs (Ministry of Infrastructure, 2015a).

How much energy does Rwanda generate?

Hydroelectric leads the generation capacity with 98 MW while Solar generates 12 MW of the total energy composition for Rwanda. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) (2017), Rwanda's national electrification rate is estimated at 30 percent, with only 12 percent in rural areas.
