Haiti suffers from a serious
deterioration of its natural environment and, in particular,
from a heavy pressure on its natural resources. The reasons
for this deterioration are multiple (poverty level,
demographic pressure, agricultural techniques and insecurity
regarding land tenure) and, therefore, go beyond the strict
scope of energy. However, the wood-fuel consumption is one
of the main factors of this deterioration. On a national
scale, about 70 percent of the energy needs are met using
firewood and charcoal. Although the local wood-fuel
resources have been overexploited for more than 20 years,
the price of wood-fuels does not reflect this scarcity
phenomenon which constitutes a serious ecological threat at
the countrywide level. The household energy sector remains,
by far, the main consumer of wood-fuels, in as much as it
absorbs 70 percent of the overall supply. However, this
sector is characterized by very low efficiency in terms of
use outputs. |
