For instance, the Ethiopian Power System Expansion Master Plan forecasted the share of industry in total domestic (i.e., excluding export) sales of electricity to grow from 36% in 2012 to 50% in 2015, and then decline to 46% in 2037 .
Ethiopia is endowed with a variety of renewable energy resources. This enormous potential however remains largely unexploited. Energy poverty, inefficiency, and insecurity are still major challenges. Energy transition could support almost all SDGs in the country.
This paper attempts to fill this gap. It gives a narrative overview of the Ethiopian energy system by compiling information on the country's energy statistics (resources, demand, and supply), and energy-economy modeling from academic and gray literature.
Foreign (or export) demand for electricity is a recent energy demand sector . Fig. 3 shows, between 2012/13 and 2018/19, Ethiopia exported an average of 895 GWh electricity per year . Electricity export is forecasted to reach to 35,303 GWh per year by 2037 . Fig. 3. Forecasted electricity export sales in Ethiopia .
Solar energy is another promising source for Ethiopia, as the country receives an average of 5.5 kilowatt-hours of solar radiation per square meter per day. The country has the potential to generate more than 5,000 MW of solar power and has already installed some solar plants and mini-grids in rural areas.
Ethiopia is pursuing a green energy revolution by developing its renewable energy sources, such as hydro, wind, solar and geothermal. However, the country faces some challenges and conflicts, especially over the Nile waters.
