ZAMBIA’S ENERGY SECTOR OVERVIEW Zambia’s energy resources include electricity (hydropower), petroleum, coal, biomass and renewable energy. It is only petroleum which is wholly imported in the country. The Energy Sector in Zambia consists of three main sub-sectors namely: Electricity, Renewable Energy and Petroleum. ELECTRICITY SUB-SECTOR

Furthermore, utility-scale wind and solar projects have the potential to contribute significantly to the electrical grid as electricity demand rises and the economic viability of these projects improves, thereby enhancing energy mix diversification and supporting Zambia’s broader energy goals.
By identifying and prioritizing key opportunities within Zambia’s energy sector, the mapping exercise directly supports the plan’s goals of economic diversification, sustainable development, improved livelihoods, and environmental sustainability.
