Overview
Côte d'Ivoire's renewable energy stood at 58.20% in 2021, a decline of +3.60% from 2020. Côte d'Ivoire ranked 38th globally.
Côte d’Ivoire’s renewable‑energy share fell from 73.60 percent in 1990 to a trough of 58.20 percent in 2021, the lowest level recorded over a 32‑year span and the 38th‑highest globally in that year. The all‑time peak of 79.10 percent was reached in 2011, after which the share declined steadily despite regional efforts to expand hydro, solar and biomass capacity. By contrast, peer countries such as Paraguay and Sweden reported slightly higher shares of 58.80 percent and 57.90 percent respectively in the most recent data, underscoring that Côte d’Ivoire lags behind peers with comparable rankings. The downward trajectory reflects challenges in maintaining investment flows, grid integration and policy continuity. Strengthening renewable‑energy incentives, improving transmission infrastructure and securing stable financing could reverse the decline and push the country back toward its 2011 peak in the coming decade.
