Compared to 2019, the peak power demand for the Island of Mauritius decreased by 2.6% from 507 MW to 494 MW in 2020, while that of the Island of Rodrigues increased by 6.6% from 7.6 MW to 8.1 MW (Table 7). Some 2,882 GWh (248 ktoe) of electricity was generated in 2020.
The peak power demand in 2020 reached 494 MW for the Island of Mauritius and 8 MW for Rodrigues. Compared to 2019, the peak power demand for the Island of Mauritius decreased by 2.6% from 507 MW to 494 MW in 2020, while that of the Island of Rodrigues increased by 6.6% from 7.6 MW to 8.1 MW (Table 7).
The main energy consumed by the sector was as follows: electricity (74 ktoe), diesel oil (36 ktoe), fuel oil (29 ktoe), coal (24 ktoe) and bagasse (12 ktoe). Total final energy consumption by “Commercial and Distributive Trade” sector, which represented 10.7% of total energy consumed decreased by 21.6% from 111 ktoe in 2019 to 87 ktoe in 2020.
