Energy use per capita EG.USE.PCAP.KG.OE
Armenia's energy use per capita was 1,547 in 2025, ranked 74th globally. This represents a 14.8% increase from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1990–2025.
Overview
Armenia's energy use per capita stood at 1,547 in 2025, a rise of +199 from 2022. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 1,547 by 2025. Armenia ranked 74th globally.
Armenia's energy use per capita has undergone significant fluctuations over the past three decades. The country's all-time peak of 2,248.45 in 1991, shortly before the dissolution of the Soviet Union, reflects its high energy consumption during the communist era. The subsequent decline to a trough of 409.76 in 1994, following the economic turmoil of the early 1990s, highlights the devastating impact of the crisis on Armenia's energy sector. Since then, the country has experienced a gradual recovery, with energy use per capita increasing to 1,547.04 in 2025. This places Armenia near the midpoint of the global ranking, closely trailing Uzbekistan, which reported a similar value of 1,550.86. Despite this progress, Armenia's energy use per capita remains below its pre-independence peak. A significant shift in the country's energy mix, such as increased investment in renewable energy sources, could alter the trajectory of energy use per capita and drive sustainable growth.
