Highlights
- The National Plan of Development set a solar capacity addition target of 600 MW for 2022.
- ANPG replaced Sonangol as regulator of the hydrocarbon sector in 2019.
- Foreign companies produce most crude oil, mainly Total, Chevron, ExxonMobil, BP, and Eni.
- Angola is the 3rd largest oil producer in Africa.
- Electricity production is increasing above 10%/year, with hydropower representing 3/4 of the power mix.
- Gas flaring has been drastically reduced.
- Gasoline and diesel prices are the second lowest in Africa after Algeria.
- Electricity tariffs are low and do not cover production costs.
- The country's energy consumption has been decreasing since 2015 because of the recession.
- Biomass still represents 41% of this consumption, but its share is declining.
- Angola aims to reach 9.9 GW of capacity by 2025 (+4.6 GW) and a 60% electrification rate.

Abstract
Institutions & Energy Policy
The Minister of Mineral Resources, Oil, and Gas is in charge of the country's oil and gas activities. The Ministry of Energy and Water (MINEA) manages the electricity sector.
As the 3rd largest oil producer in Africa and in the top 17 largest worldwide (2018), Angola aims to increase activities in the oil sector and hopes to develop its gas resources. Angola joined OPEC in 2007.
Energy Supply
Resources:
Angola has an enormous gas potential, with estimated reserves of 343 bcm (end of 2019).
Proven oil reserves are estimated at 1.1 Gt (end of 2019). The country also has an important hydroelectric economic potential, estimated at 65 TWh/year.
Energy Prices
Oil:
Gasoline and diesel prices in 2020 averaged US$0.24/l and US$0.21/l, respectively, and are the second lowest in Africa after Algeria. Prices have been increasing since 2013 in national currency due to recommendations from the IMF to reduce subsidies, which were estimated to cost around 4% of the GDP in 2013. They decreased in dollar due to a strong depreciation of the national currency.
Energy Consumption
Overall per capita energy consumption is around 0.5 toe. Per capita electricity consumption is approximately 318 kWh (2019).
Issues & Prospects
Electricity:
The Angola Energy 2025 Vision, will seek to expand the electrification rate from 36% to around 60% by 2025 and increase installed capacity from 5.4 GW to 9.9 GW, using up to 60% of hydropower. Under the Angola Energy plan for 2025, the country forecast US$23bn of investments (US$12bn in generation, US$4bn in transmission and US$7.5bn in distribution).
