Overview
Grenada's electricity access stood at 95.18% in 2025, a rise of +0.78pp from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 95.18% by 2025. Grenada ranked 157th globally.
Grenada’s electricity‑access rate rose from 85.04 % in 1998 to 95.18 % in 2025, marking the highest level recorded over the 27‑year series and placing the country at 157th globally. The steady climb reflects sustained investment in grid expansion and renewable‑energy projects, particularly solar‑photovoltaic installations that have lowered the cost of extending service to remote communities. Compared with regional peers, Grenada’s coverage is slightly lower than Fiji’s 95.84 % and Nepal’s 94.84 %, but it approaches Gabon’s 96.16 % and surpasses Comoros’s 94.22 % in the latest year. The upward trajectory suggests that continued policy focus on off‑grid solutions and regional interconnections could push access above the 96 % threshold within the next decade, provided financing and technical capacity keep pace with demand.
