Renewable Energy Consumption: Togo

Analysis# Togo Renewable Energy Consumption Togo relies on renewable energy for 75.1% of its total energy consumption as of 2021, reflecting a moderately high dependence on sustainable sources. This figure sits well below the country's all-time peak of 91.5% recorded in 1993, yet remains substantially above the low point of 63.4% in 2009. Since 1990, renewable energy's share has declined 4.6 percentage points overall, signaling a gradual shift toward non-renewable sources over three decades. The period from 2012 to 2021 reveals fluctuation rather than consistent movement. Renewable consumption climbed to 81.4% in 2014, marking the recent peak, before settling into a downward trend through 2021. The volatility during this decade—spanning 72.7% to 81.4%—suggests economic and infrastructure changes affecting energy generation capacity. Current momentum points toward continued reliance on renewables, though the declining trajectory warrants monitoring.
