Sao Tome and Principe: Many of us want an overview of how much energy our country consumes, where it comes from, and if we''re making progress on decarbonizing our energy mix. This page provides the data for your chosen country across all of the key metrics on this topic.
São Tome and Principe has been working in collaboration with UNIDO, the World Bank, UNDP and other organisations to implement renewable energy projects in the country. The most advanced renewable energy project currently is the Santo Amaro solar photovoltaic power plant with 2.2 MWp, which is expected to be operational in early 2022.
The sustainable industrial and socio-economic development of São Tomé and Príncipe (STP) is heavily dependent on reforming the energy sector and transitioning from an almost complete reliance on fossil fuels to renewable energy (RE) coupled with energy efficiency (EE).
The United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) has selected Gesto to spearhead a significant new project in São Tomé and Príncipe, focused on building institutional capacity for a Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Investment Programme.
Gesto was selected to assist the EU''s SE4ALL TAF in the evaluation of São Tomé and Príncipe''s energy sector and of its institutional and political framework, in order to support the development of the country''s energy sector roadmap.

joint exploration of the oil resources of Nigeria and Säo Tomé and Príncipe is based on a 60:40 ratio of benefit sharing, respectively. However, as a result of this emphasis on oil, there has been little research in alternative energy sources in the country (Liu, Masera, & Esser, 2013). Figure 2: Total energy production, (ktoe)

Also on the island of Príncipe, there are plans to develop a 4.5 MWp solar photovoltaic plant. Currently, the rate of renewable energy production in the energy mix in Sao Tome and Principe is 5% from the Contador hydroelectric plant with 1.9 MW.
Traditional biomass – the burning of charcoal, crop waste, and other organic matter – is not included. This can be an important energy source in lower-income settings. Sao Tome and Principe: How much of the country’s energy comes from nuclear power?
Traditional biomass – the burning of charcoal, crop waste, and other organic matter – is not included. This can be an important source in lower-income settings. Sao Tome and Principe: How much of the country’s electricity comes from nuclear power? Nuclear power – alongside renewables – is a low-carbon source of electricity.
