Major source of energy in Zambia is wood fuel (i.e. firewood and charcoal), with the largest consumer group being households in both rural and urban areas; Electricity installed capacity is 2,451MW. 96% hydro, 2.1% thermal (HFO and Diesel) and 1.7% renewable comprising of solar and small hydros. "Renewable hydro" = up to 20 MW.
Zambia currently generates 2,800 megawatts (MW) of electricity, 85% of which is from hydroelectric source, while the rest is from fossil fuel and other sources. There is a demand-supply gap of 810 MW, but this deficit worsens in drought incidence. The electricity access rate is 31% (67% urban, and 4% for rural areas).
