Countries With a Similar Electricity Mix
Ember annual, 2025Tajikistan's closest match is Kyrgyzstan, 98.9% the same, and the match goes both ways, so they are grid twins.
- Kyrgyzstan 98.9% the same · grid twin Kyrgyzstan generates 1.0 points more coal than Tajikistan
- Ethiopia 94.4% the same Ethiopia generates 4.7 points less coal than Tajikistan
- Bhutan 94.4% the same Bhutan generates 5.6 points more hydro than Tajikistan
- Nepal 94.4% the same Nepal generates 4.7 points less coal than Tajikistan
- Paraguay 94.4% the same Paraguay generates 5.1 points more hydro than Tajikistan
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
