Given this impressive foundation of low-carbon electricity, Switzerland now faces the challenge of increasing electricity supply to electrify other crucial sectors like transport, heating, and industry, which will necessitate a substantial surge in electricity production. Data sources used on this page include EIA, IEA and World Bank.
Increasing investment in nuclear and optimizing solar energy capture will be crucial to stabilize and grow Switzerland''s clean electricity output. Switzerland''s electricity mix includes 56% Hydropower, 29% Nuclear and 11% Solar. Low-carbon generation peaked in 2001.
However, the significant drop in hydropower in 2025 underlines the need for diversified and resilient energy strategies. Increasing investment in nuclear and optimizing solar energy capture will be crucial to stabilize and grow Switzerland''s clean electricity output. Switzerland''s electricity mix includes 56% Hydropower, 29% Nuclear and 11% Solar.
Despite the high proportion of low-carbon electricity, Switzerland''s overall electricity consumption has seen a decline compared to historical levels. In 2025, the country''s electricity consumption was around 7873 kWh per person, which is noticeably lower than the peak of 10024 kWh per person recorded in 2001.
