        Guatemala

        The National Energy Plan of Guatemala defines the promotion of renewables as a priority. The plan aims to promote the use of clean and environmentally friendly energy for domestic consumption without losing sight of energy security and the need for supplying electricity at competitive prices.

        Access and Affordability

        …to universal electricity access within a decade Progress on electricity access has been remarkable in recent decades. Since 2000, the number of people without electricity has fallen by almost a billion, and 40 countries have reached near-universal access. After setbacks related to the Covid-19 pandemic and the global energy crisis, the global trend is once again downward, though the pace of progress remains well below that achieved over the previous decade. On the basis of current trends, around 710 million people are projected to remain without access to electricity in 2030, and 650 million in 2050.

        Ethiopia

        In Ethiopia, while electricity reaches less than half of the population, great progress has been made over the past two decades. The National Electrification Program, launched in 2017, outlines a plan to reach universal access by 2025, aiming to supply 35% of the population with off-grid solutions. Meanwhile, Ethiopia is diversifying its hydro-dominated installed generation mix in favour of solar, wind and geothermal to pursue a more climate-resilient power system and reach economic development objectives.
