In March 2023, Georgian power plants generated 1,019 mln. kWh of electricity (Figure 1). This represents a 5% decrease in the total generation compared to the previous year (in March 2022, the total generation was 1,077 mln. kWh). The decrease in the generation on a yearly basis comes from a fall of 58% in thermal and 2% in wind power, while hydropower generation increased by 41%.

In February 2023, Georgian power plants generated 987 mln. kWh of electricity. This represents an 11% increase in the total generation compared to the previous year (in February 2022, the total generation was 890 mln. kWh).

In January 2023, Georgian power plants generated 1,111 mln. kWh of electricity. This represents an 8% increase in the total generation compared to the previous year (in January 2022, the total generation was 1,025 mln. kWh).

In 2022, Georgian power plants generated 14,247 mln. kWh of electricity, record high generation for a single year. This represents a 13% increase in total generation, compared to the previous year (in 2021, total generation was 12,645 mln. kWh).

In December 2022, Georgian power plants generated 1,116 mln. kWh of electricity. This represents a 6% decrease in the total generation compared to the previous year (in December 2021, the total generation was 1,192 mln. kWh). The decrease in the generation on a yearly basis comes from a decline of 39% in hydropower, while wind power and thermal power generation increased by 50% and 38%, respectively.
