Access to Electricity (% of Population) (% of population) for 215 countries, with the latest available year and the earliest year on record.

What this is. Share of the population with access to electricity. Access means the household is connected to a source that provides a reliable supply.

Ranking — latest available year

Countries are sorted by their most recent reported value. The first-year column shows the earliest year for which the World Bank publishes a figure for that country, which is not the same year for every country.
