November 15, 2022 by Balaram Adhikari. The long-awaited reform of Mozambique''s electricity law has reached the statute books this winter in Maputo (summer if you''re in the Northern Hemisphere), with the enactment of Law 12/2022 of 11 July (the New Electricity Law ). It is early to know how impactful the changes it brings will be.

Energy efficiency, coupled with distributed renewable generation, is not only relevant to decrease the energy consumption and environmental emissions, but is also a large opportunity in terms of job creation and development of new business areas that stimulate investment (foreign and national). Moreover, energy efficiency and off-grid
