Mali Total Energy Production & Consumption
Total energy consumption has increased by 2.5%/year since 2010, reaching 6.2 Mtoe in 2023. That consumption jumped by nearly 25% in 2010 after the country recorded very high economic growth (~7%). Energy consumption per capita is low, at about 0.3 toe/capitain 2023, compared to the average for Sub-Saharan Africa (0.6 toe/capita).

Mali Renewable in % Electricity Production
ANERB (National Agency for Renewable Energies and Bioenergies) was established in December 2024 from the merger between AER, the national agency in charge of renewables, and ANADEB, the national body responsible for promoting and developing biofuels. The agency should contribute to the formulation of national strategies, project monitoring, capacity building, as well as the mobilization of funding and international cooperation in this sector.
