In four southern provinces of Angola, we''re deploying 724 MW of utility-scale solar PV, solar minigrids with battery storage, home power kits, and potable water. This $2 billion project is our second large-scale solar project in Angola and will provide electrification to more than two million people.
The findings of the preliminary feasibility study (PFS) published by engineering firm Wood Group in November 2019, found that Longonjo could produce an average of 56 000 tpa of concentrate over a nine-year mine life, for an upfront capital cost of $131 million.
In recent years, the main energy transition metals that have been of interest to Angola''s investors have been cobalt, nickel and copper. However, a listed junior is now targetting lithium, an essential metal for battery manufacturing, which is highly sought after on the African continent.
Development of electric mobility in Angola International benchmark analysis In many countries public sector has introduced measures to stimulate the market uptake of electric vehicles through financial and non-financial incentives. While incentives generally entail an increase in public spending, they also
Angola has set a target of 60% access to electricity by 2025 under the strategic plan ''Visao 2025,'' of which solar is poised to play a central role. Supporting electrification as well as diversification, solar projects are being rolled out by the government alongside international partners and project developers.

Energy in Angola describes energy and electricity production, consumption and export from Angola. The energy policy of Angola reflects energy policy and the politics of Angola.
Biomass accounts for 58% of the country''s energy consumption; oil accounts for 35%, gas 4% and hydroelectric power 3%.
Primary energy use in 2009 in Angola was 138 TWh and 7 TWh per million persons.[1]
Angolans used to suffer frequent daily blackouts. In 2012, days before the election, the government announced $17B US in planned energy investment, designed to alleviate the paucity of available energy.[2]
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) reports that Angola''s renewable energy usage increased from 50% of the total energy supply in 2015 to 63% in 2020. Within this sector, bioenergy represents 85% of Angola''s renewable energy supply as of 2020. This shift in Angola''s energy strategy indicates a move towards sustainable resources, reducing the country''s previous dependence on conventional fuels like oil and gas.[3]
Angolan population has increased 19.4 percent in the five years 2004-2009.
Electricity is produced by Empresa Nacional de Electricidade de Angola.
Angola ranks second in crude oil production in sub-Saharan Africa, after Nigeria. In 2022, the country produced an average of 1.165 million barrels of oil per day, according to its National Oil, Gas and Biofuel''s Agency (ANPG).[5]
Development has been planned but much delayed, of a new 200,000-barrel-per-day (32,000 m3/d) refinery in the city of Lobito, on the coast. The Angolan state-owned oil company Sonangol would have a 70 percent stake in the Sonaref refinery at Lobito, its then-head Carlos Saturnino said in 2006, and the Chinese oil company Sinopec would retain the remainder.[6]
Angola''s economy was profoundly affected by the sharp drop in oil prices in 2014 and in 2020. This is even though new skyscrapers, appeared in Luanda; offices, shopping centres and apartment buildings proliferated in a "mini-golden age" as leading economist Alves da Rocha called it, from 2003-2008. Yet "probably three quarters" of the population of Luanda live in "tumbledown slums".[7] Two thirds of the 16.5 million people in Angola live on less than $2 a day, according to the World Bank,[8] and the oil industry employs less than one percent of the workforce.[7]
Foreigners, including Chinese construction companies and several hundred thousand Chinese workers, and as many or more Portuguese and Brazilian trade and finance consultants and managers. Oil companies set up shop in Angola.[9]
Angola fined Chevron Texaco $2m for causing environmental damage in 2002[10] to fisheries caused by obsolete tubes at the Cabinda oilfield. Chevron promised to spend $108 m replacing the pipes. The company pumps almost three-quarters of Angola''s oil, and also reduced crude production about 12%, after a pipeline leak.[11]
Angola LNG made its first shipment in June 2013. A system failure brought a design flaw to light in 2014, and production resumed only in 2015.[12] In order to maintain the supply of gas to the facility, oil majors in Angola have formed a New Gas Consortium that took a final investment decision (FID) in 2022 on developing the Quiluma and Maboqueiro non-associated gas fields.[13]
