The breakdown of bioenergy electricity generation capacity is not available. Total installed electricity generating capacity stood at 3 440 kW at end-2004 and provisionally at 3 660 kW at end-2005.

In 2004 the total direct and indirect energy produced from all bioenergy sources was 4 167 035 toe.

The estimated potential of forestry/wood processing residues is of 11 819 000 toe, but at end-2004 only 7 576 040 toe were being exploited.
