Tunisia Energy Use per Capita
Energy use per capita EG.USE.PCAP.KG.OE
Tunisia's energy use per capita was 938 in 2025, ranked 94th globally. This represents a 1.9% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1990–2025.
Overview
Tunisia's energy use per capita stood at 938 in 2025, a decline of +18 from 2022. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 938 by 2025. Tunisia ranked 94th globally.
Tunisia’s energy use per capita has risen steadily from 594.32 in 1990 to 938.04 in 2025, placing the country 94th globally and positioning it between peers such as Guatemala (954.57) and Eswatini (915.90). The upward trajectory peaked in 2017 at 973.95, a level only marginally below Egypt’s 973.53, before a modest retreat to the current figure. The all‑time trough of 576.28 in 1991 highlights how the nation has more than doubled its per‑capita consumption over the past three decades, reflecting expanding industrial activity, urbanisation and greater access to electricity. While the growth curve has moderated since the 2017 high, the 2025 level remains well above the early‑1990s baseline, suggesting that continued investment in renewable sources and energy‑efficiency measures will be crucial to curb further increases and potentially reverse the long‑term rise.
