Overview
Aruba's electricity access stood at 99.94% in 2025, a decline of +0.06pp from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 99.94% by 2025. Aruba ranked 136th globally.
Aruba’s electricity‑access rate stood at 99.94 % in 2025, placing the island at rank 136 globally, just shy of the all‑time peak of 100.00 % recorded in 2023 and a modest decline from the early‑2000s trough of 91.70 % in 2000. The near‑universal coverage reflects sustained investment in grid expansion and renewable integration over the 35‑year span, keeping Aruba marginally ahead of Brazil’s 99.88 % and closely aligned with Uzbekistan’s 99.98 % as of the same year. Despite the slight dip from the 2023 peak, the indicator has remained above 99 % for more than two decades, suggesting a resilient supply system insulated from major outages. Continued diversification toward solar and wind, coupled with regional interconnections, could push the rate back to full coverage and preserve Aruba’s position among the highest‑ranking nations in electricity access.
