Crude Oil Production
Mozambique produces NGL in very limited quantity and has no refinery, therefore, all the oil products supplied are imported, totalling 1.7 Mt in 20210 (stable since 2016).

Renewable in % Electricity Production
The country adopted the Strategy for New and Renewable Energy Development (PNENR) 2011-2025 in 2011, with the aim of developing renewables for electricity generation. The PNENR determined targets for renewables, including a doubling of the hydropower capacity (to over 4 GW) and the elaboration of potential studies for marine and geothermal energy.

CO2 Fuel Combustion/CO2 Emissions
In its updated NDC (2021), Mozambique targeted a GHG emission reduction target of 10 MtCO2eq in 2025, i.e. around 20% below a BAU projection; the cumulated reduction between 2020 and 2025 is estimated at 40 Mt. The target is conditional on financial assistance and technology transfer.
The National Strategy for Mitigation and Adaptation to Climate Change 2013-2025 (ENAMMC, 2012) aims to reduce vulnerability to climate change and improve the population's living conditions.
