Belize has 4 MW of utility-scale solar and wind capacity in operation across 4 tracked facilities, ranking #184 of 222 countries in this atlas.

Solar dominates: 100% of the operating capacity (4 MW) comes from solar parks, against 0 MW of wind.

The pipeline is substantial: 0 MW under construction and 60 MW in pre-construction or announced, equal to 1,500% of today’s operating fleet.

About 4 MW (100%) of the operating capacity started up in 2021 or later; the busiest year was 2023, with 2 MW commissioned.

The largest concentrations are in Stann Creek (3 MW), Cayo District (1 MW).
