What is the purpose of a fuel storage facility in Malawi?
The purpose of Government fuel storage facilities in Malawi includes utilizing them as inland dry ports and common-user facilities, ensuring effective participation of Malawian nationals in the petroleum products market, and developing guidelines for franchising of liquid fuel outlets.
What is Malawi's energy supply?
Malawi’s energy supply is dominated by biomass (firewood, charcoal, agricultural and industrial wastes) accounting for 84% of the total primary energy supply. The total installed electricity capacity is currently at 351 MW with around 98% Hydro on the shire river.
Where can I find information about energy in Malawi?
For information about energy in Malawi, contact the Department of Energy Affairs at the Ministry of Natural Resources, Energy and Mining. You can reach them at Capital House, City Centre, P/Bag 309, Lilongwe 3, Malawi. Their contact details are: Tel No. (265) 1 770688, Fax No. (265) 1 770094/771954, and E-mail: [email protected].
How does Malawi use its energy?
Malawi gets over its total energy from oil, which is fossil fuel. We depend on this fuel to run our vehicles, generators, power industry and manufacturing, and provide us with electricity in the absence if hydro power. Petrol and diesel powers many of our municipal transportation fleets and the trucks that deliver goods to markets.
How can Malawi achieve a cleaner energy future?
The project will also contribute to a cleaner energy future for Malawi, reducing reliance on costly diesel generators, cutting carbon emissions by ~10,000 tonnes annually, and unlocking the full uptake of at least 100 MW of variable renewable energy, such as solar and wind power, into the grid.
What is the Malawi Bess project?
The Malawi BESS project will guide the scale-up of BESS projects in the Consortium’s participating countries. To alleviate energy poverty by and save a gigaton of CO2 in low and middle-income countries, it is estimated that 90 GW of BESS must be developed to support the required 400 GW of renewable energy.
