In September 2018, Georgian power plants generated 849 mln. KWh of electricity. This represents a 3% increase in total generation, compared to the previous year (in 2017, total generation in September was 820 mln. kWh). The increase in generation on a yearly basis comes from an increase in wind power (+18%) and thermal power generation (+50%), more than offsetting the decline in HPP generation (-4%).

On September 18, the Energy and Environment Center of the ISET Policy Institute participated in a Public-Private Dialogue (PPD) on a draft law regarding water resource management. The Business and Economics Center (BEC) organized the PPD with the Environment and Natural Resource Committee at the Parliament of Georgia with the involvement of major stakeholders of the water sector.

In August 2018, Georgian power plants generated 985 mln. KWh of electricity. This represents a 5% decrease in total generation, compared to the previous year (in 2017, total generation in August was 1,034 mln. kWh). The decrease in generation on a yearly basis mainly comes from a decrease in hydropower and wind power generation (more details in the report below).

In July 2018, Georgian power plants generated 1,268 mln. KWh of electricity. This represents a 2% increase in total generation, compared to the previous year (in 2017, total generation in July was 1,247 mln. kWh). The increase in generation on a yearly basis mainly comes from an increase in hydropower and wind power generation.

In June 2018, Georgian power plants generated 1,208 mln. KWh of electricity. This represents a 6% increase in total generation, compared to the previous year (in 2017, total generation in June was 1,138 mln. kWh). The increase in generation on a yearly basis mainly comes from an increase in hydropower generation.
