Latest Updates And Structural Trends

Driven by continued expansion in oil and gas-fired electricity sources, the country's total net generation is forecast to increase from an estimated 66.2 terawatts (TWh) in 2015 to 99.9TWh in 2025.

We forecast gas fired generation to average 7.0% growth per annum over the coming decade, leaving behind oil-fired generation with the average annual expansion rate of 2.3%.

Non-hydro renewables generation will continue rising from a low base, but the sector's contribution to the overall country's power mix will remain very limited.
