Electricity generation in Belarus

Annual electricity production, fuel mix and historical observations for Belarus, with links to its grid operators, electricity market and power stations.

Reference year: 2024. Published snapshot, not live output. Energy is reported in terawatt-hours (TWh).

How much electricity does Belarus produce?

Belarus reported 45.8 TWh of domestic electricity generation in 2024. Among the reported source categories, gas produced the most electricity: 27 TWh.

Electricity mix 2024

Annual generation by source · terawatt-hours (TWh)

Hydro0.4 TWh
Wind0.2 TWh
Solar0.26 TWh
Bioenergy0.55 TWh

Nuclear15.7 TWh
Coal0.02 TWh
Gas27 TWh
Other fossil1.7 TWh

Missing categories are labelled “No data”. Rounding can cause small differences from the reported total.

Renewable share uses domestic generation as its denominator. Low-carbon generation includes renewables and nuclear; nuclear is not renewable. Missing fuel categories remain “No data”, and rounded source values need not sum exactly to the reported total.

Generation is not consumption or installed capacity

The source separately reports electricity demand of 45.2 TWh for 2024. Domestic generation is not electricity consumed after trade and losses. The demand series is a separate source measure, not a calculated import balance. Power-plant ratings in megawatts (MW) measure capacity; annual production in TWh measures energy.

Searching for “energy production in Belarus”? This profile answers the electricity part of that question. Transport fuels, heat and total primary-energy production are outside this dataset.

Annual electricity generation in Belarus

Every row retains its own reporting year. 2024 remains the common-year comparison even where a newer observation exists. Missing observations are not interpolated.
