This would represent a reduction of 1% compared to 2023, mainly hydro (14,995,899 MWh, -2%), primarily from the Cahora Bassa Hydroelectric Plant (HCB), with 14,506,036 MWh (-3%), yet with a weight of 82% of the entire national production structure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cComparing the estimated production and sales for 2023, HCB predicts a reduction in energy production and sales for 2024 due to repair work on the floodgate diffuser (preparatory activities for the Central Rehabilitation Project \u2013 RS2) which will make the group\u2019s generators 4 and 5 unavailable,\u201d the document reads.<\/p>\n<p>Electricidade de Moc\u0327ambique (EDM), a state-owned producer and distributor, forecasts 7% growth in output in 2024, compared to projections for 2023, influenced by the substantial increase in production from the Mavuzi and Chicamba hydro plants.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
