Andorra energy use edges up in 2025 as imports offset slump in domestic generation

Andorra’s total energy consumption in October 2025 was 42,634 MWh, a 0.6% increase from October 2024, the Department of Statistics reported. Imports rose sharply to 35,320 MWh in October, up 14.8% year‑on‑year, while energy produced domestically fell 36.9% over the same period.

For the January–October 2025 period, total consumption reached 463,681 MWh, a 1.4% increase versus the same period in 2024. Of that total, 347,421 MWh were imported (+2.4%) and 116,363 MWh were produced within Andorra (−1.5%). Over the last 12 months, total consumption stood at 576,214 MWh (+1.6%), with imports of 441,812 MWh (+3.1%) and domestic production of 134,509 MWh (−3.2%).

Expressed in tonnes of oil equivalent (TEP), October consumption was 17,139.4 TEP (−6.4% year‑on‑year). The accumulated January–October figure was 163,773.6 TEP (−0.3%), and the rolling 12‑month total was 198,903 TEP (−0.7%).

Electricity consumption by FEDA clients (FEDA is Andorra’s electricity utility) in October was 26,957.6 MWh, a 0.5% decline from October 2024. By sector, industry was the only activity to grow in October (+9.1%), while household consumption (−13.8%) and construction and annexes (−12.0%) recorded the largest falls.

For January–October, FEDA clients consumed 295,150.8 MWh, up 0.9% year‑on‑year. Notable increases were recorded in construction and annexes (+17.4%) and industry (+14.1%), while public lighting (−7.1%) and other services (−5.4%) registered the biggest declines.

Representative fuel‑group movements in October included rises in gasoline (+4.8%) and electricity (+0.6%), while domestic fuel fell by 22.9% and diesel for transport declined by 2.9%.

Adjusted data that remove calendar effects show national energy consumption broadly stable but slightly down in the most recent month (around −0.8% on the adjusted series), while FEDA client consumption has shown a modest upward trend over the past four months (about +0.6%).

Overall, the modest rise in recorded energy use in October and year‑to‑date was driven by higher imports, which more than offset a marked fall in domestic generation.
