Togo’s energy mix is characterized by a heavy reliance on biomass for primary energy and natural gas for domestic electricity generation. As of 2023–2024, biomass and waste account for approximately 82% of the total primary energy supply, while natural gas generates roughly 73% of the country’s electricity.

Togo is exploring green hydrogen, with studies highlighting a significant potential for production, particularly from agricultural biomass in its coastal regions. The country possesses, on average, 31.35 Gt of potential in its coastal zone, which is equivalent to 1235.37 GWh, while biomass, solar, and wind resources offer pathways to green hydrogen production.

Green hydrogen in the region is viewed as a future component for green ammonia, fertilizer, and transportation.
