Shifting from fossil fuels

Ember’s Global Electricity Review 2025 report states that 80 countries generated more than 50% of their electricity from clean sources in 2024.

Although Ember has 2024 data for only six African countries, its 2023 data contains 15 African countries that generated more than half their electricity from clean sources.

The DRC and Ethiopia generate all their electricity from renewable sources, Namibia and Eswatini are close to 100%.

However, a few of those countries also have to import electricity to meet their needs. Namibia, for example, generates its own hydro and solar power, but it has to import around half of its electricity, mainly from South Africa. The same applies to Eswatini.

Hydro is the main clean electricity source in Africa: 19% of the continent’s electricity is hydro.
