Introduction

Three decades of civil war has destroyed much of the infrastructures of Angola and a large part of the population is also displaced. Therefore, Angola also ranks low among African countries in many human development indicators.Only a small percentage of Angola's population has access to electricity. The State-owned generation company has about 900 MW of installed capacity where 60% of the installed capacity is hydro while rest is primarily diesel-fired thermal.<ref> Retrieved from: http://www.iea.org/publications/freepublications/publication/angola2006.pdfCite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name
