In October 2017, Georgian power plants generated 828 mln. KWh of electricity. This corresponds to an 8.7% decrease in total generation in comparison with the previous year (in 2016, total generation in September was 907 mln. kWh). The decline in generation on a yearly basis comes from a decline in thermal power generation and in hydro power generation (more details below).

On a monthly basis, generation increased by 0.79% with respect to September 2017 (in September 2016, total generation was 820 mln. kWh).

In September 2017, Georgian power plants generated 820 mln. kWh of electricity. This corresponds to a 3% increase in total generation in comparison with the previous year (in 2016, total generation in September was 798 mln. kWh). On a monthly basis generation decreased by21% with respect to August 2017 (in August 2017, total generation was 1,035 mln. kWh).

Following the traditional seasonal pattern, renewable sources of electricity produced 87% of total generation (713 mil kWh), while thermal power generation has started increasing, accounting for 13% of total generation (103 mln. kWh). Looking at the seasonal trends, generation from TPP was highest between December and February, and lowest between May and July, when renewable generation peaked.

In August 2017, Georgian power plants generated 1,035 mln. kWh of electricity. This corresponds to an 8% increase in total generation in comparison with the previous year (in 2016, total generation in August was 957 mln. kWh). Generation decreased by 17% with respect to July 2017 (in July 2017 total generation was 1,247 mln. kWh).

Following the traditional seasonal pattern, renewable sources of electricity produced 92% of total generation (952 mln. kWh), while thermal power generation accounted for only 8% of total generation (83 mln. kWh). Consumption of electricity on the local market was 1,038 mln. kWh, marginally bigger than the amount generated. Looking at the seasonal trends, generation from TPP is highest between December and February, and lowest between May and July, when renewable generation peaks.
