Overview
Moldova's electricity access stood at 100.00% in 2025, a rise of +0.00pp from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 100.00% by 2025. Moldova ranked 98th globally.
Moldova has maintained universal electricity access for the entire 35‑year span covered by World Bank data, with the latest 2025 figure confirming 100.00 % of the population connected to the grid, a level it also recorded in 1990 and at the all‑time peak in 2025. The only deviation from full coverage occurred in 2005, when access slipped to a trough of 98.60 %, but the shortfall was quickly recovered and has not reappeared since. Moldova’s performance matches that of peer jurisdictions such as Monaco, Maldives and North Macedonia, all of which report 100.00 % coverage and occupy the same rank (98) in the global listing. The persistence of full electricity access suggests a robust distribution infrastructure and effective policy continuity. Continued investment in grid modernization and renewable integration will be crucial to sustain this trajectory, especially as demand patterns evolve and regional interconnections expand.
