Ethiopia has set an ambitious target to supply 100% of its domestic energy demand by 2025, combining on- and off-grid electrification, as well export demand to the East Africa Power Pool countries, through renewable energy by 2030. By the end of 2025, when all 29 turbines are fully operational, the wind farm will generate over 300 GWh of clean and. . Ethiopia possesses abundant wind resources that have the potential to revolutionize its energy sector by provid-ing reliable and sustainable electricity through wind power. The estimated wind resource of the country reaches 1,350 GW. Currently, only 44 % of Ethiopian residents have access to energy. Strategic investments in clean energy infrastructure are addressing domestic electricity needs while also supporting regional energy integration and. . The outlook consists of two sections: The Energy Landscape with a broad view on Ethiopian energy policy (chapter 2-5) and the Power Sector, with a model-based analyses of least-cost investments in expansion of the power system (chapter 6).
