EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME) 2025–2029 Strategic Plan outlines a comprehensive
roadmap for transforming Liberia’s mining, energy, hydrological and geological resource
management sectors. Grounded in the ARREST Agenda for Inclusive Development (AAID), the
plan is structured around seven strategic pillars aimed at institutional reform, sustainable resource
management, energy access, environmental stewardship, research and innovation, partnerships,
and sector governance.
Over the five-year period, the MME will focus on strengthening institutional capacity,
decentralizing service delivery, expanding renewable and conventional energy infrastructure, and
promoting responsible mineral extraction. The plan emphasizes policy reforms, infrastructure
development, community engagement, and the use of modern technologies to ensure transparency,
accountability, and optimal benefits from natural resources.
Key to achieving these goals will be strong partnerships with government agencies, development
partners, private sector actors, and local communities. The strategy adopts clear Key Performance
Indicators (KPIs), realistic timelines, and defined responsibilities to monitor progress. With an
emphasis on sustainable development, the MME aims to position Liberia as a competitive,
transparent, and environmentally responsible player in the regional and global energy, geological,
hydrological and mining sectors—ensuring equitable benefits for all Liberians.
The total estimated cost of implementing the Strategic Plan is approximately US$39.5 million
(thirty-nine point five million United States dollars) over the five-year period.
Proposed Sources of Funding:
• Government of Liberia / National Budget Appropriation – 65%
• Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), including minimum 5%
• Development Partners and Bilateral/Multilateral Contributors – 25%
This financial framework ensures that the plan is credible, realistic, and achievable, while
leveraging both national and international support.
