Live Data provides access to the latest aggregated power sector statistics, which can be analysed, compared with economic and demographic trends and downloaded.
See the energy mix, past present and future, alongside key trends in private and public ownership, grid connection, and technology.
Statistics in the Data Tool are generated from the ground up, so all figures correspond to a power plant on the ground that the Live Data team has investigated. The result is a unique dataset which bypasses the many obstacles facing national and institutional statistics on the continent.
Electricity generation data is drawn directly from our continually updated detailed and verified entries for each project and plant in the database, providing Live Data subscribers with the most complete picture of the industry on any given day.
Data includes total installed capacity, renewable capacity, fuel breakdown, technology breakdown, capacity by connection type, capacity by ownership type, average age of operating plants.
Understand your chosen market with indicators for access to electricity and non-solid cooking fuel.

The Data Tool will help you answer these questions.
