Lithuania Energy Use per Capita
Energy use per capita EG.USE.PCAP.KG.OE
Lithuania's energy use per capita was 2,305 in 2025, ranked 47th globally. This represents a 5.4% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1990–2025.
Overview
Lithuania's energy use per capita stood at 2,305 in 2025, a decline of +132 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 2,305 by 2025. Lithuania ranked 47th globally.
Lithuania’s energy use per capita has fallen sharply from an all‑time peak of 4,601.93 kWh in 1991 to a trough of 2,040.58 kWh in 2000, before stabilising at 2,304.90 kWh in 2025, placing it 47th globally. The 1990s decline reflects the post‑Soviet industrial contraction and the subsequent restructuring of the energy sector, while the modest rebound since 2000 coincides with economic growth and increased integration into the European Union energy market. Lithuania’s 2025 figure is comparable to Italy’s 2,292.56 kWh and slightly below Switzerland’s 2,338.11 kWh, indicating that its consumption pattern now aligns with other moderately affluent EU members. Continued investment in renewable sources and energy‑efficiency measures could further lower per‑capita use, potentially shifting Lithuania below its peers in the coming decade.
