Earlier Report Observations

The market for non-coniferous wood fuel in Senegal expanded gradually from 5 598 thousand m³ in 2018 to 5 677 thousand m³ in 2023. This steady growth was primarily driven by the strong performance of the wood industry, which represented 9% of industrial production and recorded an average annual increase of 8.7% between 2019 and 2022. Additionally, rising prices for gasoline, diesel, and electricity in 2021 and 2022 enhanced the competitiveness of wood fuel, encouraging greater household reliance on this energy source, particularly in rural areas.

During this period, several government initiatives shaped the market environment. Programs like the National Domestic Biogas Program and the Improved Stoves Project aimed to reduce wood consumption, while sustainable forest management efforts worked to limit deforestation. These measures provided a counterbalancing context but did not offset the underlying demand growth fueled by industrial activity and energy price dynamics.
