Energy in Mauritius

The island still runs on fuel oil and coal.

In 2025, Mauritius generated 3,551.6 GWh of electricity, up 3.9% on 2024.

82.2% of the electricity generated in 2025 came from non-renewable sources: 2,919.1 GWh out of 3,551.6.

90.8%

of Mauritian energy is imported, mostly fossil. The price of power is decided elsewhere.

Rs 71,422 M

The 2025 oil and coal bill, or 22.4% of everything the country imports.

Peak demand has never been this high.

An all-time record: 567.9 MW in February 2025, 8.0% more than the 525.7 MW of February 2024. In fifteen years, +25%.

Since 1st May 2026, some uses have been banned for businesses.

The Energy Efficiency (Control of Non-Essential Grid-Powered Activities) Regulations 2026, Government Notice No. 50 of 2026, target the CEB's non-residential customers until 1st November 2026. According to the local press: decorative and façade lighting, advertising panels, air conditioning in empty premises, fountains, unused sports grounds.

Load shedding in the evening

According to the local press, rotating outages of 20 to 30 minutes in 2025, mostly between 18:00 and 21:30. In October, engines going down at Savannah and Belle-Vue opened a 55 MW shortfall.

A reprieve won by saving power

According to the local press, no rotating outages in 2026 and peak demand held to 560.3 MW: a national saving campaign brought it down by about 40 MW between October 2025 and March 2026. The CEB is calling for non-essential uses to be cut from 18:00 to 21:00.

How long does an outage last?

The CEB publishes its reliability region by region. SAIDI counts the hours of outage per customer per year; SAIFI, the number of outages.

North 3.32 h of outage per year 1.03 outages per year, 3.22 h on average
Centre 4.25 h of outage per year 2.35 outages per year, 1.81 h on average
South 4.44 h of outage per year 2.03 outages per year, 2.19 h on average

It is getting worse: in the Centre, 2.49 h in 2020, 4.25 h in 2024; in the South, 3.31 h then 4.44 h.

From 1st November to 15 May, the island lives by the cyclones.

The official length of the season. On 15 January 2024, cyclone Belal cut power to around 40,000 households in a single night and affected more than 100,000 people.

The four warning classes tell you how much time is left, not how strong the cyclone is.

Class I Issued 36 to 48 hours before gusts of 120 km/h.
Class II 12 hours of daylight before those gusts, as far as possible.
Class III 6 hours of daylight before those gusts, as far as possible.
Class IV Gusts of 120 km/h recorded in places, and set to last.

Intensity is read on another scale: tropical cyclone between 118 and 165 km/h, intense above that. Gusts recorded in Mauritius: Gervaise 280 km/h in 1975, Carol 256 in 1960, Dina 228 in 2002, Hollanda 216 in 1994.

Energy should never keep you waiting. A power cut? You won't even notice it. The sun by day, diesel when it is needed: the power that never stops.

Built for industry

Powerful. Silent. Autonomous.

Every generator starts on its own, within seconds, the moment the grid goes down.

  • From 9 to 3000 kVA — from shops to heavy industry
  • Soundproof canopy, discreet even close by
  • Optional automatic transfer switch (ATS): zero intervention
  • Choice of engine from several engine makers
  • Three-phase 400/230 V, IEC compliant

Electricity costs 28% more than it did three years ago.

Average price recorded by Statistics Mauritius: what CEB customers actually paid per kWh, all categories together, excluding VAT and meter rental.

For industry it has almost doubled: Rs 3.61 per kWh in 2022, Rs 6.57 in 2025. Average price in 2025: Rs 6.52 domestic, Rs 9.02 commercial, Rs 6.57 industrial.

What the sun gives here

Between 1,520 and 1,610 kWh per kWp installed, every year.

Mauritius receives 1,800 to 1,910 kWh of sunlight per m² per year, and 6.5 to more than 8 hours of sunshine a day. In summer the coast goes beyond 7.5 hours; the central plateau, about 6.

WhereSunlight received, per year
Port Louis, north-west coast1,914 kWh/m²
Tamarin, south-west coast1,841 kWh/m²
Flacq, east coast1,819 kWh/m²
Central plateau, 427 m above sea level1,797 kWh/m²

18 to 20°, facing north

The optimal tilt and orientation here: we are in the southern hemisphere. Set up that way, one kWp produces 1,606 kWh a year in Port Louis (Global Solar Atlas).

Two models, two answers

At the same spot, the European Commission's PVGIS calculator gives 1,343 kWh per kWp per year, with 14% system losses. The gap comes down to the loss assumptions.

Solar jumped 29.7% in one year

Mauritian photovoltaics went from 178.0 GWh in 2024 to 230.8 GWh in 2025. Hydro fell by 26.4% and wind by 21.1%, for want of rain and wind.

Energy from the sun

Power, even in the middle of nowhere.

LiFePO₄ battery power stations: plug in, it works. At home they take over when the power goes out; outdoors they run everything, silently.

  • From 640 Wh (portable) to 55 kWh (modular, expandable)
  • Built-in inverter/UPS: 10 ms switchover during an outage
  • Recharge from solar, mains or car
  • 4,000+ cycles: built to last 10 years

17.8% renewable today. 60% targeted for 2030.

Mauritius is aiming for 60% renewables in 2030 and an exit from coal by the same date. The target, first set at 40%, was raised in the 2021/2022 Budget, ahead of COP26 in Glasgow.

A first target already missed

The 2019 roadmap aimed for 35% by 2025; achieved: 17.8%. The share has been flat for fifteen years: 21.5% in 2010, 23.9% in 2020, 19.2% in 2022, 17.6% in 2023, 18.2% in 2024.

1,345 million dollars to invest

The amount costed by the roadmap to reach 60%, or about 59 billion rupees. It admits that replacing coal with intermittent sources “remains a major challenge […] for an isolated island with no interconnected grids”.
