TOTAL FINAL CONSUMPTION20152 Mtoe

Since 2015, Armenia publishes an offi-cial energy balance with details on energy consumption.

The households are the main final con-sumers of energy and the largest con-sumers of natural gas and electricity.

Transport is the second largest final energy consuming sector. It drives demand for imported oil products.

Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES), 2015

3.1 Armenia used a total of 3.1 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe) in 2015.

ENERGY CONSUMPTION

This corresponds to 1.0 toe of energy consumption per capita per year.

With 1.0 toe of fuel, a car can make 15 round trips between

the Northern and Southern border points of Armenia*.

2.3

Although Armenia does not produce any fossil fuels, the country manages to cover 36% of its energy demand with domestic energy production. This country produces nuclear, hydro energy, as well as biofuels and waste (1.1 Mtoe in total in 2015).

All fossil fuels need to be imported. Natural gas represents the largest share of Armenia’s energy imports (1.9 of 2.2 Mtoe in 2015), followed by oil products. Armenia exports small amounts of electricity. Natural
