Egide Manirambona is a PhD holder in Energy studies and he is currently a researcher and lecturer at the University of Burundi, in the Electromechanical Department, Faculty of Engineering Sciences. He is forward-thinking, confident energy specialist with well-honed communication, leadership, management skills and proven ability to build relationships. He is the author and reviewer of many energy and greenhouse emissions related published articles, available online (https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8987-4887). He is energy transformation expert trained by Agora energywende & Renewable Academy (RENAC) for Energy Transition - Germany. He is also energy specialist trained by Florence School of Regulation & Enel Foundation – Italy, with particular regard to sustainability, homogeneity and resilience, fuelled by innovation and shared value. In 2024, Egide led USAID-Power Africa funded program “Empower East and Central Africa – EECA” as Energy specialist in Burundi. He is a member of the Research Centre in Infrastructures, Environment and Technology – CRIET, housed in the Faculty of Engineering Sciences (FSI) of the University of Burundi.

📄 Growing concerns over climate change have underscored the need for rapid actions to mitigate its impacts. In that regard, this study sought to assess greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions linked to total final energy consumption in Burundi. By using the Low Emissions Analysis Platform, GHG emissions linked to final energy consumption and their trends were analyzed. The emissions were simulated at the point of emissions and determined in CO2 equivalent at 100-Year GWP "Global Warming Potential". Results showed that the country's total final energy demand is anticipated with a rising trend and households are expected to stay the leading overall final energy consumer. Consequently, this increase is expected to drive a rise in GHG emissions. In residential sector, 1753.9 Thousand Metric Tonnes (tmt) CO 2 equivalent were emitted in 2015 and about 2095.7 tmt and 2358.7 tmt of CO2 equivalent would be emitted by 2030 and 2040, respectively in that sector. Despite its predicted decline in GHG emissions share, firewood contributed to 87.8 % of the emissions in 2015 in residential sector and is expected to remain the highest contributor of GHG emissions by 2040 with a share of 59.6 %. The GHG emitted by wood fuels represented a large share-73.9 % in 2015-of the total energy demand. However, reference-scenario simulations showed that the situation was expected to shift from 2019 onward, with the share of oil rising to 45.4 % against 41.8 % for firewood. Through implementation of improved cookstoves policy, 903.4 tmt CO2 equivalent would be avoided as compared to the reference-scenario while the adoption of low-emissions power technologies would keep the GHG emissions within the range of 1.0-2.3 tmt CO2 equivalent. The Burundi GHG emissions records presented in this study would support the country in fulfilling both its Nationally Determined Contributions targets and SDG-7 objectives.
