1. CURRENT ENERGY POLICY AND MEASURES

Access to modern energy services and sustainability of energy systems arewidely recognized to be instrumental for equitable and sustainable
development and the achievement of many development goals, namely:
reducing poverty, increasing food security, providing safe water andsanitation, improving health care and education, creating economic
opportunity and enhancing socio-economic development.

Mozambique Energy Policy define the following mean objectives: to increaselevel of access to modern energy services in good economic conditions inorder to support social and economic development activities(1), to increaseelectricity export to neighboring countries (2), the construction of new andrehabilitation
ofexistingenergygeneration
andtransmission
infrastructures(3), to increase energy efficiency(4), and to update the Energy
Sector Legislation in order to attract private investments.

MINISTÉMINISTÉRIO DA ENERGIA3MINISTÉMINISTÉRIO DA ENERGIA44At present only 38% of the population has access to electricity. In order toaccelerate the access to electricity, the Mozambique Energy Policy emphasis thecombination of National Electricity Grid and the adoption of hybrid solutions, inparticular for remote areas (solar, wind).
In term of energy resource potential the hydropower potential in Mozambique isestimated to be 12,000 MW with a corresponding total energy output of 60,000
GWh/year. Approximately 5,500 MW based on natural gas, plus 5,000 MW basedon coal.
In order to develop its vast resources the government of Mozambique haslaunched several major initiatives. In generation projects include the Mphanda
Nkuwa hydropower plant with a planned capacity of 1,500MW and on the Cahora
bassa North Bank Dam (CBNB) with a planned capacity of 1,245MW, the coal
thermal power plants connected to mining projects in Moatize, with a planned
initial capacity of 2x300 MW with an installed capacity of 2400 MW and Benga witha planned capacity of 500-600MW an installed capacity of 2000 MW. In the south
region of Mozambique it is planned to install about 290MW of natural gas fuelled
thermal power plants.

MINISTÉMINISTÉRIO DA ENERGIA5

Most of these projects are located on the Zambezi Valley (Tete Province),
which requires the construction of a power transmission line from Tete toMaputo, well known as the Backbone Transmission Project, to allow forpower evacuation to the major load centers, in the country and the region.
The Backbone Transmission Line Project will consist of a system of ±500kV HVDC lines, and a system of 400 kV HVAC lines, with an investment
amount of USD1.8 billion for initial phase, to evacuate about 3100 MWfrom the Zambezi Basin, with potential for future expansion up to 9200
MW.
In order to better understand the renewable energy contribution, thegovernment is developing a Renewable Energy Atlas and an appropriate
Regulatory Framework for market creation (REFIT), to be concluded in2013.

2. ENERGY DEMAND AND SUPPLY•••Total demand for electricity comprises mega projects, household andcommercial demand. Currently, the major part of domestic nonmegaprojects electricity consumption is supplied by Cahora Bassa
Hydropower Dam. In addition, in terms of supply, Electricidade deMoçambique (utility company) has own capacity with the hydro dams ofMavuzi(52MW), Chicamba(38,4MW), Corumana(16,6MW) Cuamba(1,1MW)and Lichinga(0,75MW).
Mozambique already generates hydroelectricity, mainly at Cahora Bassa(2,075 MW) and is exported electricity to the region, mainly to South Africa
and Zimbabwe. Most of the neighbouring countries are experiencing anactual or imminent shortfall of generation capacity and are eager topurchase competitively priced hydropower.
Currently around 95% of power generated in Mozambique is Hydro.
Hydro potential is >60 % of the total energy resources in the Zambezi Valley.
The region is dominated by coal fired thermal power generation: >85%.

capacity will be increased shortly with the construction of the Mphanda
Nkuwa Hydropower(1500MW), HCB North Bank(1245MW) and a number ofother initiatives [such as Lupata(600MW), Boroma(200MW) andLurio(120MW)] and large natural gas reserves discovered in Rovuma Basin(160Tcf).
The construction of the Backbone - North-South Transmission Line Projectwill facilitate evacuation of all power generated by different sources (hydroand coal) from central Mozambique (Tete) to Maputo and to South Africa.
Mozambique already generates hydroelectricity, mainly at Cahora Bassa(2,075 MW) and is exported electricity to the region, mainly to South Africa
and Zimbabwe. Most of the neighbouring countries are experiencing an
actual or imminent shortfall of generation capacity and are eager topurchase competitively priced hydropower.

3. MAJOR DIFFICULTIES AND BOTTLENECKS CURRENTLY FACED IN FORMULATING
MOZAMBIQUE ENERGY POLICY For a large number of countries, individual national action will

not be enough to bridge the energy gap because of thelumpiness and costliness of energy investments and, theuneven distribution of energy resources. Consequently, making

the best use of hydropower, natural gas, and other resources
will require regional integration and the building of a regionalenergy infrastructure.
 Lackof prioritization of decentralized energy access within
Action Plan, and coordination of energy access and industrialplanning.
