Renewable energy in Ethiopia

OverviewElectricity supplyHydropowerWind powerSolar PowerGeothermalBiofuelsExports

Ethiopia generates most of its electricity from renewable energy, mainly hydropower. The country is strategically expanding its energy sector, aiming for a more diverse and resilient mix. Currently, Ethiopia''s energy production is heavily reliant on hydropower, which constitutes about 90% of its generated electricity but is vulnerable to climate-induced droughts. To address this, the government is implementing key hydropower, geothermal, wind, and solar projects.
