Synergies and trade-offs of energy extractives in building resilient infrastructures in Mozambique
Uneven development and the geographies of energy transition in Mozambique
In Mozambique, sustainable energy access is an increasing priority for a diverse range of actors seeking to improve livelihoods and stimulate economic development—particularly in rural areas where energy infrastructure remains limited. Drawing on field research conducted as part of a comparative three-year project examining the potential of community energy systems to foster inclusive, just, and clean energy transitions in Southern and East Afric…
Financial value regime alignment and Mozambique’s heterogeneous energy landscape
Meeting the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 7 of universal access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all by 2030 will require an unprecedented amount of private sector finance and development assistance. To this end, African utilities and governments are asked to put substantive efforts into aligning themselves with the demands of the dominant financial value regime of ‘the Wall Street Consensus’ (Gabor in Dev Change 52:…
The dynamics of urban household energy poverty and energy transition in Mozambique
Among developing nations, Mozambique has set an ambitious target to achieve universal energy access by 2030 and thus meet the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 7 to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all. By the end of 2024 the government expects to double domestic electricity access to 64 per cent of the population. Yet the quantitative evaluation of electricity access rates belies challenges of e…
Delivering an off-grid transition to sustainable energy in Ethiopia and Mozambique
Background Off-grid and decentralized energy systems have emerged as an alternative to facilitate energy access and resilience in a flexible, adaptable way, particularly for communities that do not have reliable access to centralized energy networks both in rural and urban areas. Much research to date on community energy systems has focused on their deployment in Europe and North America. This paper advances these debates by looking at how commun…
