Egypt
Egypt’s energy sector is heavily dominated by fossil fuels, which accounted for approximately 88–89% of electricity generation in 2023–2024, with natural gas being the primary source (over 80%). The country is rapidly expanding renewable energy, primarily wind and solar (about 5% combined) and hydropower (7%), aiming for 42% renewable electricity … Continue reading
Ecuador
Ecuador’s energy sector is heavily reliant on hydropower, which accounted for roughly 70-79% of electricity generation in 2023-2024, supplemented by oil-fired thermal plants. Ecuador is developing a national green hydrogen strategy aimed at leveraging its significant hydroelectric surplus to produce clean energy for local industry, transportation, and future export. The … Continue reading
East Timor
East Timor (Timor-Leste) relies heavily on imported diesel for electricity, with 2022 data showing nearly all power generation came from fossil fuels. The country faces high energy costs and low per capita consumption, though electricity access has improved to over 90% in some areas. A major shift is underway, with … Continue reading
Dominican Republic
The Dominican Republic’s energy sector is heavily reliant on imported fossil fuels, with over 80% of electricity generated from oil, natural gas, and coal. While facing challenges with energy security and high costs, the country is actively transitioning toward renewables, aiming for 30% renewable energy penetration in the grid by … Continue reading
Dominica
Dominica is aggressively transitioning from a reliance on imported fossil fuels (over 85% of generation as of 2023) to 100% renewable energy, aiming to become the world’s first climate-resilient nation by 2030. A key 10-MW geothermal plant is set to begin commissioning by late 2025, alongside existing hydropower, solar, and … Continue reading
Djibouti
Djibouti’s energy mix is rapidly transitioning from heavy reliance on imported fossil fuels toward renewable energy, with roughly 80% of electricity now sourced from clean energy, primarily hydroelectricity imported from Ethiopia. The remaining domestic generation relies on diesel, while ongoing projects in wind, solar, and geothermal aim for 100% renewable … Continue reading
Denmark
Denmark is a global leader in renewable energy, with over 67% of its electricity supply derived from green sources, primarily wind power (nearly 50-58%) and bioenergy. The country aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 70% by 2030 and achieve climate neutrality by 2050, with a strategy that includes expanding … Continue reading
Czechia
Czechia is a landlocked country; therefore, it cannot produce hydrogen by electrolysis of seawater.
Cyprus
Cyprus is advancing green hydrogen as a key, strategic, and complementary solution for energy independence, targeting 2030 for the rollout of hydrogen-powered buses and trucks. Projects like GreenH2CY (targeting 150 tons annually) are driving this transition, utilizing solar energy to produce green hydrogen for transportation and heavy industry. The government’s … Continue reading
