This graphic illustrates expected power generation capacity additions over the 2024-29 period and Africa's changing access to electricity rates.
The power generation data – based on the latest information from the African Energy Live Data platform for on-grid projects with announced commissioning dates – is displayed as pie charts showing the fuel mix of additions over 2024-29 for each of Africa's regions.
Electricity access data from the IEA's World Energy Outlook 2023, is illustrated by four Africa maps with countries shaded according to the proportion of the population with access to electricity. One map shows overall data for 201o while the remaining three maps show data for 2022 (overall, urban and rural).
