Energy imports, net (% of energy use) in Zambia was 8.29 as of 2013. Its highest value over the past 42 years was 25.16 in 1971, while its lowest value was 3.84 in 2000.

Definition: Net energy imports are estimated as energy use less production, both measured in oil equivalents. A negative value indicates that the country is a net exporter. Energy use refers to use of primary energy before transformation to other end-use fuels, which is equal to indigenous production plus imports and stock changes, minus exports and fuels supplied to ships and aircraft engaged in international transport.
