National Climate Resilience Assessment for Mozambique
Mozambique’s energy system has experienced significant disruptions due to extreme weather events, notably 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…

New IEA report highlights options to ease oil price pressures on consumers in response to Middle East supply disruptions
…petroleum gas (LPG).Restoring transit through the Strait of Hormuz remains essential to stabilise global energy markets. In the meantime, countries are acting on both supply and demand. On 11 March, IEA Member countries agreed to release 400 million barrels of oil from emergency reserves – the largest stock draw in the Agency’s history. However, supply-side measures alone cannot fully offset the scale of the disruption. Addressing demand is a critical and immediate tool to reduce pressure consumers by improving affordability and supporting energy security.A new IEA report identifies ten measures that can be implemented quickly by governments…

Azerbaijan
Azerbaijan has one of the highest energy self-sufficiency ratios in the world as a major crude oil and natural gas producer. While the renewable sector has not seen as much attention, the government is now looking to stimulate investment and accelerate deployment, allowing for diversification of domestic energy consumption. In addition, the government is working on a new energy strategy that will set the stage for further policy shifts. Azerbaijan is part of the EU4Energy Programme, an initiative focused on evidence-based policymaking for the energy sector.

National Climate Resilience Assessment for Algeria
…diverging precipitation trends between the northern coast and southern desert areas. The densely populated north is expected to experience steep declines in precipitation, increasing risks for droughts and wildfires. Droughts amplify water stress of critical energy infrastructure, and wildfires threaten electricity networks, power plants, and oil and gas operations. According to the Algerian General Directorate of Forests, about 3 000 fire outbreaks were recorded annually over the period 2010‑2019, burning nearly 310 km2 a year. At the same time, Algeria’s desert regions could see an increase in extreme precipitation events, flash floods and riverbed overflows in a high-emissions scenario which…
