Countries With a Similar Electricity Mix

Ember annual, 2025

Armenia's closest match is Russia, 75.0% the same.

  1. Russia 75.0% the same Russia generates 17.7 points more coal than Armenia
  2. Belarus 72.1% the same Belarus generates 19.5 points less hydro than Armenia
  3. United States 71.0% the same The United States generates 16.3 points more coal than Armenia
  4. United Arab Emirates 69.7% the same The United Arab Emirates generates 28.6 points more gas than Armenia
  5. Slovenia 66.7% the same Slovenia generates 33.1 points less gas than Armenia

How close: the share of generation that would have to change fuel for one mix to match the other (half the sum of the fuel share differences); 100% minus that is "the same". Grids under 1 TWh are skipped. Grid twins: the 25 closest pairs and every country's nearest match
