Cuba has 843 MW of utility-scale solar and wind capacity in operation across 117 tracked facilities, ranking #70 of 222 countries in this atlas.
Solar dominates: 100% of the operating capacity (841 MW) comes from solar parks, against 2 MW of wind.
The pipeline is substantial: 179 MW under construction and 1.6 GW in pre-construction or announced, equal to 215% of today’s operating fleet.
About 654 MW (78%) of the operating capacity started up in 2021 or later; the busiest year was 2025, with 505 MW commissioned.
The largest concentrations are in Artemisa (122 MW), Matanzas (85 MW), Granma (75 MW).
