Countries With a Similar Electricity Mix
Ember annual, 2025Oman's closest match is Singapore, 96.3% the same, and the match goes both ways, so they are grid twins.
- Singapore 96.3% the same · grid twin Singapore generates 2.8 points more bioenergy than Oman
- Tunisia 95.7% the same Tunisia generates 3.2 points more gas than Oman
- Qatar 95.3% the same Qatar generates 4.5 points more gas than Oman
- Algeria 92.9% the same Algeria generates 7.1 points more gas than Oman
- Trinidad and Tobago 92.0% the same Trinidad and Tobago generates 8.0 points more gas than Oman
How close: the share of generation that would have to change fuel for one mix to match the other (half the sum of the fuel share differences); 100% minus that is "the same". Grids under 1 TWh are skipped. Grid twins: the 25 closest pairs and every country's nearest match
