Uganda’s energy sector is dominated by three sources – biomass, oil and electricity representing about 93%, 6% and 1% of the national energy balance respectively ( Ministry of Energy and Development, 2005). Biomass particularly wood fuel remains the main source of energy inUganda. It accounts for respectively 85% and 3% of rural and urban energy sources. At industrial and commercial levels, biomass accounts for 6% and 4% respectively. The over reliance on biomass energy has contributed to rapid depletion of trees and hence environmenta l degradation.
