The update highlights key advancements in Liberia's energy sector, including notable progress in power generation and the expansion of energy access. However, despite these gains, the country faces significant power shortages, calling for substantial investments to achieve reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy access for all Liberians.
One strategy is to diversify the energy mix by increasing the share of domestic renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, for electricity generation. By harnessing these indigenous and sustainable energy resources, Liberia can decrease its reliance on imported fuels and enhance its energy security.
The primary challenge to energy access in Liberia is the limited and underdeveloped energy infrastructure. The lack of adequate power generation, transmission, and distribution systems contributes to this low access rate. The electrification rate is significantly lower in rural areas, where most of the population resides .
Liberia also utilizes other energy sources on a smaller scale. These include small-scale renewable energy systems such as solar and biomass. However, the contribution of these sources to the overall energy mix in Liberia is limited. Abundant and clean energy sources, reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
Liberia also has abundant biomass resources, with estimates suggesting that the government can produce up to 27,452 GWh of electricity from biomass annually . Expanding these resources can provide sustainable and decentralized energy solutions, particularly in rural and remote areas.
