A data overview is available in the global energy statistics app
Total Energy Consumption
Total energy consumption per capita is 0.4 toe, including 255 kWh of electricity (2021).
Total energy consumption has increased by 3%/year since 2016, reaching 10.6 Mtoe in 2021, after more rapid growth between 2010 and 2015 (5.5%/year).
As in most Sub-Saharan African countries, biomass is the most widely used energy source, with 69% of total consumption. Oil represents 20% of total consumption, natural gas 6%, and hydroelectricity 5%.

Crude Oil Production
Oil production remained stable in 2021 (3.6 Mt), after a 25% fall between 2016 and 2018. It had increased by 12%/year between 2011 and 2015 with the start of production of the Bojongo field and the growing production of the Inter-Inoua Barombi, Barombi Northeast and Padouk fields, operated by SNH. Oil production is still far below its 1984 peak level of 8.8 Mt.

Renewable in % Electricity Production
The government aims to bring the share of renewables (large hydro excluded) to 25% of the electricity mix in 2035 in its updated NDC (11% from small hydro, 7% from biomass, 6% from solar PV, and 1% from wind). Part of the increase in the electrification rate of households depends on the development of these decentralised energies.

CO2 Fuel Combustion/CO2 Emissions
In its updated NDC (2021), Cameroon set the target of a 35% reduction in GHG emissions (without LULUCF) by 2030 compared to 2010. Agriculture represents more than half of total GHG emissions.
CO2 emissions from fuel combustion are increasing steadily, with a 4%/year growth between 2012 and 2021, reaching 7.3 MtCO2 in 2021. Per capita emissions are in line with most other Sub-Saharan Africa countries (except South Africa): 0.3 tCO2/inhabitant in 2021.
