  • What is primary energy production in Malawi?
  • Primary energy production covers the fuels sourced from energy resources within Malawi. It covers the collection of wood, mining of coal and electricity generated from natural resources, such as hydro and solar.
  • What is Malawi's energy use?
  • Malawi¡¯s energy use is dominated by biomass (predominantly wood and charcoal). It accounted for 86% of all final use in 2020, compared to 10% for oil products, 3% for electricity and 1% for coal. For households the importance of biomass is even starker: it accounts for nearly all (99%) of energy used in homes, across the whole of the country.

  • Malawi¡¯s total final consumption of energy, as shown in Figure 1.4, is the energy that was used by households, in transport and businesses. In 2020, it amounted to 4337.7 kToe. Consumption was dominated by biomass (wood and charcoal) which accounted for 86% of the final use, compared to 10% for oil products, 3% for electricity and 1% for coal.

These are 13.8 MJ/Kg for wood and 29.5 MJ/Kg for charcoal. This approach is similar to many African countries.
  • How much wood is used for charcoal production in Malawi?
  • The wood used for charcoal production was estimated at 669 thousand tonnes in 2010, but by 2020, it had grown to 1.7 million tonnes. The use of biomass is especially significant in the residential sector. In 2020, it is estimated that 99% of fuels used by households in their homes across Malawi was biomass.
