Rwanda Energy/Energie


Livre_Rwanda_Energy_Energie

Authors : Dr. Ivan TWAGIRASHEMA and Lode VAN PEE

Rwanda is seeking to achieve serious economic growth. A sustainable energy mix and improved access to available energy sources will be essential if it is to achieve this goal. This reference work provides detailed descriptions of Rwanda’s various renewable energy sources (muscle, solar, wind, water, geothermal, timber, recycling, etc.) and non-renewable energy sources (petroleum, gas and peat). International data indicates that Rwanda has a low per capita energy consumption level. This is demonstrated by the fact that, in 2013, 86% of the Rwandan population continues to use renewable and sustainable biomass (timber, charcoal and crop residue) as its only source of energy.

‘Rwanda Energy/Energie’ richly illustrates all energy sources in Rwanda and provides up-to-date information on how energy is generated, transmitted, distributed and used. This book is not intended only for scientists, teachers and students, but also for a wider audience.
