Zambia: Energy Country Profile
A few points to note about this data: Renewable energy here is the sum of hydropower, wind, solar, geothermal, modern biomass and wave and tidal energy. 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.

ENERGY STATISTICS IN ZAMBIA
Major source of energy in Zambia is wood fuel (i.e. firewood and charcoal), with the largest consumer group being households in both rural and urban areas; Electricity installed capacity is 2,451MW. 96% hydro, 2.1% thermal (HFO and Diesel) and 1.7% renewable comprising of solar and small hydros. "Renewable hydro" = up to 20 MW.
Why Zambia''s System of Energy Provision Did Not Prevent the Power Outages of 2015 and 2016
Besides low rainfall which caused a 40% reduction in energy generated at Kariba North hydropower dam—which accounted for 45% of Zambia''s installed power capacity in 2016 (Energy Regulation Board of Zambia, 2017a, p. 57)—path dependence and the other factors discussed above, rising transmission and distribution losses since
