In line with its mandate to secure a comprehensive database for national decision making, the Energy Commission has over the years provided energy statistical documents such as the National Energy Statistics which compiles statistics of the various forms of energy annually. This document comprises among other things, the overall national energy consumption of both primary and non-primary forms of energy including wood fuel, petroleum and electricity. The document has become
a very important source of energy data for energy policymakers, researchers, students as well as organizations and institutions in the energy field.

It has become necessary to develop an energy database at the district level to provide relevant information for execution of Government programmes at district level such as the “One District One Factory” (1D1F) initiative. The Commission has therefore developed a comprehensive database on the energy profile of the various districts of the country which is the first of its kind in the country, providing information on energy resources and their utilisation at the district level. This report is organised into five sections. The first section is the introductory portion of the report.

The second section deals with renewable energy resources at the district level which are, hydro, solar, wind and biomass. Section 3 covers petroleum resources in the country and Section 4 covers projected residential energy demand at the district level in 2020. The document also provides Annexes of tables which present the number of LPG filling stations, electricity access and 2020 projected household energy demand in the various districts. It is expected that this report will serve as a source of valuable information for all relevant agencies and institutions in the country including decision makers, policy makers, researchers and investors.
