Through the development of its energy strategic pillar, WWF aims to ensure that convenient energy development and supply mechanisms are well identified at the national level and around key conservation landscapes. The objective is to positively impact the urban and rural energy supply system and facilitate more livelihood alternatives for communities living around key conservation areas.

Wood (mainly for cooking) is currently the largest source of energy in the DRC. WWF is therefore working to reduce the pressure on forests through sustainable wood energy production.
WWF's approach is to reduce forest degradation and carbon emissions from deforestation, while increasing people's access to alternative sources of energy.
