TOTAL FINAL CONSUMPTION20154.1 Mtoe

From 2000 to 2015, total final energy consumption in Georgia has been multiplied by 1.5.

The transport sector is the largest final consumer of energy in Georgia.

Households are the first consumers of natural gas.

Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES), 2015

4.6 Georgia used a total of 4.6. million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe) in 2015.

ENERGY CONSUMPTION

This corresponds to an energy consumption of 1.25 toe per capita which

is enough to make 30 roundtrips by car between Tbilisi and Batumi (*).
