Energy Efficiency, Conservation &
Sustainability
Energy utilization
in Myanmar mainly depends upon
traditional energy such as Fuelwood,
Charcoal and Biomass. During
2009-2010,
28 percent of the total energy
consumption is contributed by commercial
energy such as oil, natural gas, coal
and hydropower. The balance utilization
of different energy types have all along
been emphasized and increased production
of commercial energy has been
prioritized in order to replace
traditional energy types and at the same
time to meet the requirement of
