The Gambia’s energy mix is currently dominated by imported fossil fuels and traditional biomass, though it is undergoing a rapid transition toward solar energy and regional grid integration. As of early 2025, the government has set an ambitious target to reach 90% electricity access by the end of the year, … Continue reading →

Gabon’s energy mix is characterized by a high reliance on biofuels and waste (74.9%) for total energy supply and a split between hydropower (46.3%) and fossil fuels (53.4%) for electricity generation. The country is currently undergoing a transition focused on expanding renewable capacity, specifically targeting 10 MW of solar power … Continue reading →

France’s energy mix is heavily dominated by nuclear power, which provides roughly 65-69% of its electricity generation as of 2024-2025, making it one of the lowest-carbon intensity grids in Europe. When considering all energy (not just electricity), nuclear provides 44%, followed by oil (27%) and gas (12%). France is heavily … Continue reading →

Finland’s energy mix has undergone a rapid transformation, reaching 95% fossil-free electricity production in 2024. This shift is anchored by the expansion of nuclear power and a surge in wind energy, positioning Finland as a leader in the European energy transition. Nuclear power remains the largest source following the 2023 … Continue reading →

Fiji, a country in the South Pacific, is an archipelago of more than 300 islands. Fiji’s energy mix is currently driven by a high share of renewable energy, primarily hydropower, alongside a significant reliance on imported fossil fuels (diesel and heavy fuel oil). While roughly 55-60% of electricity is generated … Continue reading →

Ethiopia, in the Horn of Africa, is a rugged, landlocked country split by the Great Rift Valley. Ethiopia’s energy mix is dominated by bioenergy, primarily used by the residential sector. Oil, which is all imported, is the second largest fuel in energy supply and is mainly used in the industry … Continue reading →

Eswatini, formally the Kingdom of Eswatini, also known by its former official names Swaziland and the Kingdom of Swaziland, is a landlocked country in Southern Africa. It is bordered by South Africa on all sides except the northeast, where it shares a border with Mozambique. Eswatini’s energy mix relies heavily … Continue reading →

Estonia has achieved a notable reduction in greenhouse gas emissions thanks mainly to lowering its reliance on electricity generation from domestic oil shale, an energy rich sedimentary rock. However, oil shale remains the main energy source and imported fossil fuels still plan a major role, especially in transport. Estonia’s forests, … Continue reading →

Eritrea’s energy mix is dominated by traditional biomass, which accounts for over 75% of the total energy supply, followed by imported oil. Electricity generation relies heavily on fossil fuels (~90% oil), with a growing, yet small, share of renewables, primarily solar and wind projects like the Assab Wind Farm. Eritrea … Continue reading →

Equatorial Guinea’s energy mix is heavily dominated by fossil fuels, with natural gas accounting for approximately 82% of the total energy supply, followed by oil and a small percentage of biofuels. While oil production has declined, gas remains central to its energy sector, with electricity generation supported by both gas … Continue reading →
