Tematic report Introduction Angola faces challenges related to energy security, which impact its economic stability and sustainable development. This report summarizes the main points related to energy security in Angola. Energy Security Challenges in Angola Dependence on Oil: Angola is highly dependent on oil revenues, which represent the vast majority of the country's exports. This makes the Angolan economy vulnerable to fluctuations in oil prices on the international market. Insufficient Infrastructure: The energy infrastructure in Angola is efficient to meet the growing internal demand for energy. This results in frequent power outages and a lack of reliable access to electricity in many parts of the country. Lack of Diversification: There is a lack of diversification in Angola's energy matrix, with an excessive dependence on fossil fuels, especially oil and natural gas. This poses a risk to the country's energy security, especially given growing concerns about climate change and the need to transition to cleaner, renewable energy sources. Opportunities for Improvement Diversification of the Energy Matrix: Angola has enormous potential to develop renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind and hydroelectric power. Diversifying the energy matrix can reduce dependence on fossil fuels and increase the resilience of the country's energy system. Investment in Infrastructure: Investment in energy infrastructure is essential to improve energy distribution and efficiency in Angola. This includes expanding generation capacity, modernizing the electrical grid and investing in energy storage technologies. Policies and Regulations: Implementing clear and effective policies and regulations can encourage investment in the energy sector and promote the responsible and sustainable use of Angola's energy resources. Conclusion Energy energy is a crucial element for the sustainable development and economic stability of Angola. To face current and future challenges, the country needs to diversify its energy matrix, invest in infrastructure and adopt policies that promote energy efficiency and the responsible use of energy resources.
