Electricity Mix by Country, 2025
This page shows how 213 countries generate their electricity, one horizontal bar each, using Ember's annual statistics (each country at its own latest year, through 2025). Paraguay has the highest low carbon share of any country generating at least 10 TWh, 100.0% in 2025. South Africa is the most coal dependent of those, at 81.4% coal in 2025. 27 countries get more than 90% of their electricity from low carbon sources (nuclear and renewables) and 132 get more than half from fossil fuels.

How to Read This
- Each bar is 100% of one country's electricity generation in its latest year in Ember's annual statistics. Each coloured segment is one fuel and its width is that fuel's share, in the same order on every bar: fossil fuels first, then nuclear and renewables. Segments of 8% or more show their percentage; every share is also in the segment's tooltip and in a hidden list for screen readers.
- Low carbon means nuclear plus all renewables (hydro, wind, solar, bioenergy, geothermal and other renewables). Fossil means coal, gas, oil and other fossil. Click Low carbon or Fossil to sort by those totals, or any fuel in the legend to sort by that fuel's share; click again to reverse.
- Shares are of electricity generated inside the country, not of what it consumes: imports and exports are not in the bars. The total beside each bar is generation, and the year is that country's own latest year, which is 2025 or the year before for most countries.
- Named extremes in the text above only consider countries generating at least 10 TWh, the same floor the records pages use. 2 countries have published shares that do not add up to 100% (Ember nets some fuels to a negative value, so the positive ones total more than 100%). Those bars are rescaled to exactly 100% so they can be drawn, which makes their segments slightly smaller than Ember's own figures; the country page shows the unscaled numbers.
Electricity Mix FAQ
Which country has the cleanest electricity mix?
Among countries generating at least 10 TWh, Paraguay had the highest low carbon share in 2025: 100.0% of its electricity came from nuclear and renewable sources, according to Ember. Smaller grids can reach 100%, but a single dam or solar farm can decide the whole mix there.
Which countries rely most on coal for electricity?
South Africa had the highest coal share among countries generating at least 10 TWh, 81.4% in 2025. Click Coal in the legend above the bars to rank every country by coal share.
How many countries get most of their electricity from low carbon sources?
27 of 213 countries got more than 90% of their electricity from nuclear and renewables in their latest Ember year, and 132 got more than half from fossil fuels. Low carbon here means nuclear, hydro, wind, solar, bioenergy, geothermal and other renewables.
How do I read the electricity mix bars?
Each bar is 100% of one country's generation in its latest year. Each coloured segment is one fuel, in the same order on every bar (fossil fuels first, then nuclear and renewables), and its width is that fuel's share. Every share is also listed as text for screen readers.
