Thailand

Thailand’s energy mix is heavily reliant on fossil fuels, particularly natural gas, which powers more than half of the country’s electricity. As of 2024, fossil fuels accounted for approximately 85% of Thailand’s electricity generation. Thailand is actively developing its green hydrogen sector to achieve net-zero goals by 2050, focusing on … Continue reading

Tanzania

Tanzania’s energy mix is dominated by biomass (approx. 76% of total primary energy) for cooking and heating, while electricity generation relies heavily on natural gas (approx. 48–65%) and hydropower (approx. 31–36%). The country faces power shortages due to drought-induced low water levels, prompting a shift toward gas, with emerging investments … Continue reading

Tajikistan

Tajikistan’s energy mix is dominated by hydropower, which produces over 90-94% of the country’s electricity, making it one of the world’s cleanest electricity generators. The remaining electricity is generated from coal (roughly 4-7%) and natural gas. While renewable-heavy, the system faces seasonal shortages in winter, causing increased reliance on coal-fired … Continue reading

Syria

Syria’s energy mix is heavily dominated by fossil fuels, with over 95% of electricity generated from oil and natural gas as of 2022. The sector, severely impacted by conflict, relies on declining domestic production and imports, with limited, yet growing, contributions from hydropower and solar power. Syria is gradually exploring … Continue reading

Switzerland

Switzerland’s electricity generation is over 98% low-carbon, primarily driven by hydropower (approx. 60–62%) and nuclear power (approx. 29%). While the electricity sector is nearly fossil-free, the overall energy mix still relies heavily on oil products and natural gas for heating and transport. The country is transitioning to renewables, with solar … Continue reading

Sweden

Sweden’s electricity production is nearly 99% low-carbon, relying primarily on a mix of hydroelectric (approx. 38-40%) and nuclear (29%) power as of 2024-2025. Wind power is the fastest-growing source, contributing over 20-25% to the grid. The country aims for a 100% renewable or fossil-free electricity system by 2040, featuring high … Continue reading

Suriname

Suriname’s electricity sector is transitioning, with a 2023 mix of roughly 38–42% hydropower and 53–61% fossil fuels (heavy fuel oil), according to IEA and Low-Carbon Power. The nation aims to increase its renewable share to over 35% by 2030, supported by new Electric Sector Plan 2025–2044 initiatives like solar mini-grids. … Continue reading

Sudan

Sudan’s energy mix is heavily reliant on traditional biomass for primary energy and a combination of hydropower and thermal (oil) power for electricity, with roughly 43-62% coming from renewables. Due to ongoing conflict, oil production has been disrupted, and only about 62% of the population has electricity access. Sudan holds … Continue reading

Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka’s energy mix relies on a combination of imported fossil fuels (coal and oil) and domestic renewable sources, primarily hydropower. While hydropower (around 37-38% of generation) and other renewables like wind and solar are significant, thermal power (coal/oil) still dominates, providing about 45-60% of total electricity. Sri Lanka is … Continue reading

Spain

Spain has transformed its energy mix into a European leader for renewables, with over 50% of annual electricity production coming from green sources in 2023. Wind (approx. 22-24%) and solar (approx. 14-22%) are the primary drivers, complemented by nuclear (approx. 20%) and natural gas, aiming for 81% renewable electricity by … Continue reading
