National Climate Resilience Assessment for Mozambique
…tropical storms and cyclones. With climate change, storms are projected to intensify, as are the risks of seasonal droughts and floods, posing a threat to the reliable operation of hydropower generation and the secure operation of the country’s coal mines. Mozambique’s plans to diversify its energy supply are an important step to enhance energy security and could be complemented by targeted measures to make its electricity system more resilient to natural hazards. Storms and tropical cyclones present the most regular extreme weather event faced by Mozambique and routinely cause significant damage to electricity infrastructure. Most recently, three cyclones …

Energy Transition Review for Enhancing Co-operation
…of renewables in the power generation mix to 35% by 2030 and 50% by 2040 – up from the 22% achieved in 2024. These objectives are articulated in the Philippine Energy Plan (PEP) 2023-2050, Volume II: Transitioning to Reliable, Clean, and Resilient Energy (hereafter “Philippine Energy Plan”) and the Power Development Plan (PDP) 2023-2050, which emphasise renewable deployment, energy efficiency, grid modernisation and resilient infrastructure. Natural gas is being positioned as a transition fuel that supports the shift from coal towards higher shares of renewables, while nuclear energy is being reconsidered as a stable, low-emissions source of electricity. Achieving...

Cost of Capital Observatory
Tracking the cost of capital for clean energy projects in emerging and developing economies The Cost of Capital Observatory is an initiative from the IEA, the World Economic Forum, ETH Zurich and Imperial College London. The aim of the Observatory is to increase transparency in the energy sector and inspire investor confidence, especially in emerging and developing countries where data on financing costs is scarcer.The Observatory is divided into three sections:A Dashboard that provides free data on the cost of capital for energy projects in emerging and developing economies, updated with 2023 and 2024 data in July and…

Mozambique 2024
Energy Policy Review Government action plays a pivotal role in ensuring secure and sustainable energy transitions. Energy policy is critical not just for the energy sector but also for meeting environmental, economic and social goals. Governments need to respond to their country’s specific needs, adapt to regional contexts and help address global challenges. In this context, the International Energy Agency (IEA) conducts Energy Policy Reviews to support governments in developing more impactful energy and climate policies.This Energy Policy Review was prepared in partnership between the Government of Mozambique and the IEA. It draws on the IEA’s extensive…
