In April 2007, the Government of Mauritius adopted the 'Outline of the Energy Policy 2007-2025 - Towards a Coherent Energy Policy for the Development of the Energy Sector in Mauritius'. This document outlines the Government's long-term vision for the energy sector.
Mauritius needs massive investment in new electricity generation plants over the next 25 years. Government priority will be to secure adequate investment by putting in place the proper market conditions for such investment.
The energy strategies in Mauritius, which have been demand-driven without incentives to reduce demand, can no longer be sustainable. It is the duty and responsibility of the Government to work towards decreasing carbon dioxide emissions in light of environmental issues.
In Mauritius, fossil fuel makes up 79 % of the energy mix. In contrast, Electric Vehicles (EVs) have zero carbon and zero pollutants, reduced noise, and absence of vibrations. Their automatic transmission leads to driving simplicity and have particularly excellent acceleration performance. A distinctive feature of EVs is their battery, which powers the drivetrain of the vehicle.
