The energy mix of the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) is currently dominated by imported fossil fuels, which account for over 90% of total energy consumption. While the nation is actively transitioning toward renewable sources, it remains heavily dependent on diesel generators for approximately 91% to 95% of the electricity … Continue reading →

Mexico’s energy mix is heavily dominated by fossil fuels, which account for approximately 75% to 80% of its electricity generation as of 2024-2025. Natural gas is the primary fuel source, while the share of clean energy has recently seen a decline due to reduced hydroelectric output. The most recent data … Continue reading →

Mauritius relies heavily on imported fossil fuels for electricity, with coal and oil products accounting for over 80% of generation in 2023. The remaining ~17-19% comes from renewable sources, primarily bagasse (sugar cane residue), solar PV, and hydropower. The government aims to transition to 60% renewable energy for electricity generation … Continue reading →

Mauritania’s energy mix is heavily reliant on oil (roughly 65-70%) and biomass for total energy supply, though it is rapidly integrating renewables, which accounted for over 20% of the power mix by late 2025. The electricity sector is dominated by fossil fuels (diesel and fuel oil) but is shifting with … Continue reading →

The Marshall Islands (RMI) energy mix is dominated by imported fossil fuels, which account for roughly 90% to 97% of the country’s electricity generation. The nation is actively transitioning toward renewables to reduce vulnerability to oil price shocks and combat climate change. Between 1946 and 1958, the United States conducted … Continue reading →

In 2024, Malta’s electricity supply was dominated by domestic power plants (58.1%) and significant imports via the Sicily-Malta interconnector (31.1%), with renewable sources contributing 10.8%. While natural gas remains the primary fuel for local generation, the country is rapidly increasing its renewable energy share, which reached 17.2% of gross final … Continue reading →

The Maldives’ energy mix remains heavily dominated by imported fossil fuels, though the share of renewables—specifically solar—is growing steadily. As of early 2026, the country continues to rely on diesel for the vast majority of its power generation while pursuing aggressive decarbonization targets. The Maldives has no indigenous fossil fuel … Continue reading →

Malaysia’s energy mix is currently dominated by fossil fuels, which account for over 91% of the country’s total primary energy supply. In the electricity sector specifically, the dependence on fossil fuels—primarily coal and natural gas—is roughly 81% as of 2024. Malaysia is rapidly positioning itself as a regional green hydrogen … Continue reading →

Malawi’s energy mix is characterized by an extreme reliance on biomass (firewood and charcoal), which accounts for approximately 80% to 97% of total primary energy supply. For electricity, the country depends almost entirely on hydropower, making the grid highly vulnerable to climate-related disruptions and droughts. Malawi is exploring green hydrogen, … Continue reading →
