In 2025, two small hydro plants (11.8 MW) and six small solar stations (10.8 MW) began operating in Georgia, adding a total of 22.6 MW to the national electricity system, according to Galt & Taggart. By comparison, 2024 was more productive in terms of capacity, with the 44.5 MW Khobi 2 hydro plant entering operation.

By the end of 2025, Georgia’s total installed electricity capacity had reached 4,675 MW, comprising 3,489 MW of hydroelectric, 1,154 MW of thermal, 20.7 MW of wind, and 10.8 MW of solar.

Despite the added capacity, local electricity generation fell by 3.0% year-on-year to 13.8 TWh. Hydro generation declined 3.4% to 11 TWh, due to lower output from regulated stations, planned maintenance, hydrological conditions, and low water levels in the Enguri reservoir in January. Thermal generation decreased by 1.6%, primarily due to lower exports and increased imports.

Wind and solar output totaled 84 GWh, representing only 0.5% of total generation in 2025.
