Honduras Energy Use per Capita
Energy use per capita EG.USE.PCAP.KG.OE
Honduras's energy use per capita was 593 in 2025, ranked 111th globally. This represents a 0.2% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1990–2025.
Overview
Honduras's energy use per capita stood at 593 in 2025, a decline of +1 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 593 by 2025. Honduras ranked 111th globally.
Honduras’ energy use per capita has risen steadily over the 35‑year series, moving from 477.83 in 1990 to 592.56 in 2025, placing the country 111th globally. The upward trajectory peaked in 2015 at 659.39 before a modest decline to the all‑time trough of 456.24 in 2000, after which consumption resumed its climb. Compared with regional peers, Honduras trails Morocco’s 601.81 and slightly exceeds Nicaragua’s 589.30, while still lagging behind Jordan’s 625.13 and Côte d’Ivoire’s 573.01. The post‑2000 expansion reflects broader electrification efforts and modest growth in industrial activity, yet the pace remains constrained by limited grid coverage and reliance on imported fossil fuels. If investment in renewable generation and grid modernization accelerates, the upward trend could be sustained, potentially pushing Honduras above the mid‑600s per capita in the next decade.
