Source: IEA. Uganda's Energy Transition Plan (ETP) is a strategic roadmap for the development and modernisation of Uganda's energy sector. It charts an ambitious, yet feasible pathway to achieve universal access to modern energy and power the country's economic transformation in a sustainable and secure way.
Fortunately, the country is blessed with vast domestic renewable energy resources, in addition to its oil deposits. Harnessing a diverse mix of energy resources in a sustainable manner can help to improve the country's energy security, supporting Uganda's 2040 Vision.
We expect that the 100 MW of biomass gasification remains until 2050 and that it will be used to help balancing power production and demand, which is mainly required in the 100% renewable energy scenario after 2030. 2.2.6. Solar Energy Uganda is endowed with favourable solar irradiation of 1,825 kWh/m2 to 2,500 kWh/m2 per year (See figure 4 below).
Around 90% of Uganda's energy needs are still met by solid bioenergy, given it is the only energy source available to many in rural areas. This is not sustainable, nor is it an option to fuel future growth in Uganda.
I am therefore pleased to contribute the foreword for the Energy Policy for Uganda 2023. This policy will scale up the achievements of the Energy Policy for Uganda 2002, with a keen
