General Report on Norwegian Assistance to the Energy Sector of Mozambique
The energy sector is an important element in Mozambique's development strategy at both the household-level and the economy as a whole. In macro-perspective, the country looks to commercial energy both as a source of foreign exchange and as a catalyst for industrial progress. At the micro-level, woodfuel is the decisive form of energy. Here, the process of deforestation is creating difficulties for the urban and rural population in accessing energy for domestic consumption and indicates the general need for reforestation as well as for the development of other sources of energy.
