How much electricity does East Timorese use?
In 2022, its electricity consumption was 414.76 million kilowatt-hours. Imported fossil fuels are the primary source of energy for the country, but access to this energy is highly uneven. A majority of East Timorese live in rugged mountainous areas, and only 5 percent of these households are connected to the electricity grid.
Does improved electricity access improve development outcomes in Timor-Leste?
Overall, Timor-Leste's HDI has shown little improvement since 2010, while electricity access doubled to 100 %. The effects of improved electricity access on development outcomes appear less than observed internationally. Fig. 3. Timor-Leste's HDI component indices 2000–2021.
How much did Timor-Leste invest in a new power system?
Timor-Leste's power stations and distribution lines, showing the Power Distribution Modernisation Project. The initial capital investment in the new power system was reported as US$2 billion for the main power stations and distribution lines.
Does Timor-Leste have electricity?
Stakeholders confirmed that the state delivers Timor-Leste's national electricity supply, with no private actors involved. The electricity system's power stations and transmission lines, including those being modernised through assistance from the Asian Development Bank, are shown in Fig. 4.
