In June 2025, Georgia’s total domestic electricity generation reached 1,342.5 GWh, falling 10.2% (152.9 GWh) short of the planned target, according to recent energy sector data published by OMNIA. Despite the shortfall, renewable energy sources (RES) accounted for 99.6% of the monthly electricity generation, significantly outperforming the 12-month average of 81.2%.
Out of the total generation, renewable sources contributed 1,336.6 GWh, which was 12.9% (198.7 GWh) less than forecasted. As anticipated, thermal power generation was minimal at just 6.0 GWh for the month.
To help balance the grid, imports stood at 1.5 GWh, while 234.9 GWh was exported—marking a notable export volume despite domestic generation underperformance.
June Consumption and Load Peaks
Georgia's net domestic electricity consumption totaled 999.3 GWh in June, distributed across:
- Wholesale customers: 296.0 GWh
- Retail customers: 559.9 GWh
- Occupied territory of Abkhazia: 143.4 GWh
- System losses included:
- Distribution losses: 59.3 GWh
- Transmission losses (covered by GSE purchases): 29.4 GWh
- Own consumption during shutdowns: 2.1 GWh
The highest daily electricity consumption was recorded on June 12 at 40.5 GWh, with the lowest at 35.6 GWh on June 15. The maximum hourly load peaked at 16:00 on June 12, while the lowest load was observed at 06:00 on June 4.
Georgia's Energy Capacity: Heavy Reliance on Hydro
As of June 2025, Georgia's installed electricity generation capacity stood at 4,715 MW, broken down as follows:
- Renewables: 3,534 MW (75.0%)
- Hydropower: 3,446 MW (73.1% of total)
- Wind power: 21 MW
- Prosumers: 68 MW
- Thermal power: 1,181 MW (25.0%)
This infrastructure supported hydropower generation of 10,900.4 GWh and wind generation of 80.6 GWh over the past 12 months, compared to 2,544.7 GWh from thermal sources.
Cross-Border Electricity Trade: Net Importer Position
Between July 2024 and June 2025, Georgia remained a net importer of electricity, importing 1,760.2 GWh and exporting 733.8 GWh, leading to a net import of 1,026.3 GWh.
Guaranteed Capacity and Market Costs
In June 2025, most guaranteed capacity sources did not meet full availability, except GPower. These capacity providers collectively received GEL 1.68 million for the month.
