Global GridGeorgia's energy mix and electricity
🇬🇪 In 2025, Georgia generated 13.5 TWh of electricity. The largest source was hydro at 79%, followed by gas (20%) and wind (0.6%). In total, 80% came from low-carbon sources (nuclear and renewables) and 20% from fossil fuels.
On average, each kilowatt hour produced about 146 grams of carbon dioxide (CO₂), far below the world average of 458 grams in 2025. That makes Georgia the 33rd cleanest of 158 countries that generate at least 1 TWh a year.
Electricity demand was 14.7 TWh. Georgia imported 1.20 TWh more electricity than it exported, equal to 8.2% of its demand.
Since 2000, electricity generation has grown by 83%, from 7.36 TWh. The low-carbon share went from 79% to 80%. The biggest fall was in oil and other fossil fuels, from 3% to 0%.

Energy security score
Moderate. Georgia ranks 68th of 158 countries and 13th of 46 in Asia. The score shows how well a country could keep electricity affordable and on if fuel supplies were disrupted. It is based on 4 of the 5 measures.
| Measure | Score |
|---|---|
| Produces its own energy No reliable figure exists for Georgia, so this measure is left out and the other four count for more. | n/a |
| Variety of power sources How evenly generation is spread across nine sources. The largest, hydro, made 79%. | 38 |
| Little reliance on imported power Net imports were 8.2% of demand; each 1% takes off 2 points. | 84 |
| Low-carbon power Nuclear and renewables made 80% of generation. | 80 |
| Low gas and oil use Gas and oil made 20% of generation; the score is 100 minus that share. | 80 |
The five measures are weighted 30%, 20%, 20%, 15% and 15%. How the score works.
Oil and gas pipelines
Global Energy Monitor lists 7,542 km of oil and gas pipelines operating in Georgia, 0 km being built and 33 km proposed (lengths measured along the mapped routes; a pipeline crossing borders counts in full for each country).
