Dominica Renewable Energy
Renewable energy consumption as % of total EG.FEC.RNEW.ZS
Dominica's renewable energy was 9.96% in 2025, ranked 41st globally. This represents a 11.9% increase from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1990–2025.
Overview
Dominica's renewable energy stood at 9.96% in 2025, a rise of +1.06% from 2022. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 9.96% by 2025. Dominica ranked 41st globally.
Dominica’s share of renewable energy in total final consumption fell from 14.60 percent in 1990 to a historic low of 7.50 percent in 2009, before rebounding to 9.96 percent in 2025, placing the island at rank 41 globally. The all‑time peak of 20.90 percent in 1996 marked a brief period when wind, hydro and biomass supplied a fifth of the nation’s energy, but the subsequent decline reflected limited investment and the impact of the 2009 global financial crisis on small‑state energy budgets. By contrast, Grenada recorded 9.52 percent in 2025, indicating that Dominica’s recent recovery is modest relative to its Caribbean neighbour. The 34‑year coverage shows a long‑term downward bias, yet the post‑2009 rise suggests that policy incentives for solar PV and micro‑hydropower are beginning to take effect. Continued financing of renewable projects and integration of regional grids could accelerate the upward trajectory and move Dominica closer to its 1996 peak.
