Solar PVOnshore windOffshore windCSPBuilding / planned

Guyana has 6 MW of utility-scale solar and wind capacity in operation across 11 tracked facilities, ranking #175 of 222 countries in this atlas.

Solar dominates: 100% of the operating capacity (6 MW) comes from solar parks, against 0 MW of wind.

The pipeline is substantial: 8 MW under construction and 95 MW in pre-construction or announced, equal to 1,717% of today’s operating fleet.

About 6 MW (100%) of the operating capacity started up in 2021 or later; the busiest year was 2025, with 3 MW commissioned.

The largest concentrations are in East Berbice-Corentyne (Region 6) (3 MW), Cuyuni-Mazaruni (2 MW), Upper Takutu-Upper Essequibo (1 MW).
