The case for alternative sources of liquid fuels & petro-chemicals and the development of regional hydrocarbons infrastructure in the SADC, with a focus on MalawiMaleta, Chimango January 2016 (has links)
Thesis (M.Com. (Development Theory and Policy))--University of the Witwatersrand, Faculty of Commerce, Law and Management, School of Economic and Business Sciences, 2016. / Energy security, particularly liquid fuels, is a vital economic goal for both developed and
developing nations.As a region, SADC has large coal, oil and gas reserves,and land for
potential crop production for biofuels, yet access to liquid fuels is still a major constraint
to economic and social development. Some coal is utilised in the region for petrochemical
industries, power generation, and for heating. Crude oil reserves are largely
exported due to the lack of refineries and pipelines in the region. Whilst biofuels
production is in its infancy. This paper explores the challenges and opportunitiesthe
SADC region faces in developing refining capacity and in investing in new CTL/GTL
facilities as well as liquid fuels from renewable energy resources. A primary focus will be
on Malawi and her neighbouring states, as a case study. / MT2017
